final got clutch/flywheel installed! I dropped my car off today at my friends garage to have my ACT flywheel and clutch installed.
The flywheel is the ACT prolite and wheighs 8.4 lbl's. The clutch is a modified ACT street disk and a ACT heavy duty pressure plate.
This clutch is good for up to 235 lbl's of torque, and I was told that the car would feel as though it had 8-10 more wheel HP in 1st,2nd,3rd gears due to the flywheel.
I'll give a full report when I get it back on sunday. I have a formula for finding out exactly how much power the flywheel is good for but I have to weigh the stock one first.

There are not really any hp/torque gains. All they do is transfer the power to the ground faster and better. You will definitely feel every gear catch faster and your car will definitely lurch forward after shifting into gear. I have a Centerforce Dual Friction clutch and I love it.
