This is the one sold on KSPEC. the Valeo clutch. I bought it from rick at real-race just a couple days ago. Excellent ship time, and answered all my questions, highly recommended.

yes they are awesome

BUT be prepared for some rough 1-2-3 shifting until its broken in....mine had settled down quite a bit by around 350-400 miles (for me, since i have a 35mile each way commute to and from work, took about 6 days) THERE WILL BE A LOT OF CHATTER, but now that its broken in, it is awesome.

That is a Light weight Flywheel???? I'm agree with REDZMAN... it's looks AWESOME!!!


I have a Technical question.... I heard that a light weight Flywheel improve the HP but lower the Torque... is this true??

Haha yah the flywheel is awesome. I dunno how light the stock one is yet, but i'll find out. I AM going to install this myself smile.gif I didn't have the clutch in the picture too well anyways. About HP/torque, as far as I know a flywheel does not change either(Except maybe reducing parasitic losses). It lets you rev up and down faster, since the engine doesn't have to accelerate the extra mass.(I have no idea if this is true, just what I "think" I read quite awhile ago when I decided to buy this.

it won't lower the torque.. but it will make the engine a LOT easier to stall. The flywheel only stores engery, it does not make it. By going to a lighter flywheel, you are storing a lot less energy that you would only use when starting from a standing stop...
