Thanks, its a steel flywheel and a 230/236 cam on a 108lsa (drives great)

I was thinking the one other thing I changed was the ORY with a 3" cat back and open cut out, to 3" TDs with x-pipe and bullets dumped b4 the axle. Anyone think this could possibly make me lose power??? Im still leaning towards the heavy clutch, pistons etc, but want opinions on if I should switch back.

Yup. Helps to get the car moving off the line.
I also plan on goin as fast as possible NA first, but N20 is definitly on the to do list.

I wonder if I had my rear drag rims on during the dyno If I could get back the HP/TQ loss. The GWs with QTPs are way way lighter than the stock 17inch rims with 315 nittos.
Prob like 20#s lighter each. Wich would totally take off some of the rotating weight the clutch added.
