I just bought a clutch (Centerforce dual friction) and i have been looking for a flywheel for the past hr or so. Why are they so expensive?! Damn i wish i had a civic (not)...Well is it really worth the money? If so i guess ill start saving up rolleyes.gif ...lemme know if any of u have flywheels and really saw 500 dollars worth of improvement....thanks in advance

when you say revving - i think u sit on the sidewalk and rev ur engine, thats just what goes through my head. When your accelerating shorter gears allow for quicker acceleration. Lighter flywheel allows youto get thru those gears quicker, increasing acceleration. Also the lighter weight on the power train allows for more of the horsepower usually eaten up to go to the wheels.
