SPEC makes good flywheels, but a 4-5 is way over kill IMO. A 4 is hardly streetable, and a 5 isn't at all.

I have a SPEC 3 with 450rwhp and it has held up fine, and that is with nitrous which is especially hard on clutches.

I didn't realize you were doing that much, you will need a 4 to handle it reliably if you want to go with SPEC...but most people rather go for the Twin Disk setup for fully streetable 1000hp capable clutch.

first of all you will PROBABLY break your rear end if you launch with slicks. But you should be able to do better than that bone stock. with Slicks!!!
