ACT makes a very good flywheel. Fidanza also has a very nice one as well.

i got a question too. i know it makes your RPMS rise higher, but do u need to buy an aftermarket clutch? and if u buy the streetlite from act its 51.2% less weight do the RPMS go up 50% faster?

Im pretty sure it dosent make it go 50% faster that would be rediculus. I dont htink you need an after market clutch. Also light weight fly wheels arent really that street friendly, but i know some people on here say its fine. From what iv herd if you have a lighter fly wheel its really hard to get off the line and idle will not be the same. If im wrong guys please correct me

I have heard that if you install a new flywheel you need to change your valve and ignition timing, but i'm not sure if it's true.
