:) found something nice from unorthodox today
I was searching around today online and went to the unorthodox site to get the lbs. on the underdrive pulleys, didn't find it, so please help me if you can, but back to the point...
Unorthodox makes a 8 lb. flywheel for our 01 and 02's now, it is $459 or 469, but 8 lbs. should be a considerable dip from our stock flywheel, and this seems to be the only one I've found yet, please correct me if I'm wrong here....
With the underdrive pulleys, 8 lb. aluminum flywheel and i/h/e you should probably expect some nice gains... I'll be getting both after a while..... Maybe I should invest in a ex for the vtec too.....

ACT makes a ProLite flywheel which weighs like 9 lbs and its about $200 cheaper than the unorthodox. I got the StreetLite which weighs like 12 lbs for like 220. I think the ProLite is like 250. The Unorthodox is over $400. And ACT is just as good of quality as Unorthodox. Just wanted to let you know of some other options to maybe save you some money.
a flywheel is the best drivetrain upgrade out for our car i feel. I dont have one, but i do know that flywheels help so much. They can easily take some tenths off of your 1/4 time, even on our car. Im gonna get a Spoon flywheel when i do my engine swap this summer

Rep Power: 0 hey, AdamOSU, do u have the flywheel installed on your car?? and if so, any noticable difference?? I kinda expect there to be a good noticable gain, but just wanted to hear a first person reaction to the product. So, throw us testimonial.

Rep Power: 0 Awesome, well I'll have to get the prolite then... What about the stage 1 clutch and all that? price, and effectiveness, I shift pretty fast as it is w/out a ss, so ss and new clutch might just be in the way, or make me kill qiucker. Definatly a flywheel with the ur underdrive pulleys would make me spool like crazy.. mmm...... no vtec though.. hmmm... maybe I can get it put in? anyone know about that?
