I think most of the reason, at least the reason I dont run it with my turbo is becasue it hurts spool time. Turbos work off of engine load, more rotating mass helps load the engine and spool the turbos faster.

Very interesting! How much difference do you think that would be?

if you want it done properly then you will have to re balance the motor with the lighter flywheel. but most guys out there do not do that.

If your only pushing 5-600bhp, the stock flywheel will work just fine.

i have a Fridanza setting there just looking to see what the negatives are to installing it.


Great point about the balancing them. how balanced are the stock ones?

Thanks
