Flywheel theory...
Question: Is it worth getting a flywheel?
Here's da theory:
A lighter flywheel gives your car the ability to Rev quicker and Unrev ([IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/IMG] not sure if that is even a word) quicker. You will feel small Hp gains out of it, but also a loss in torque... But... A stock flywheel (much heavier, around 17 lbs) gives more torque due to momentum of the 17 lbs (While spinning) as oppose to a 9 or so lbs lightened one. Right... So is it worth getting a lightened flywheel?
