RE: southbend TZ stage2
iupgraded my clutch and got a lightened flywheel. im very happy with it. there is a lil chatter with it, but it's not that loud and it's not like u hear it in the car at all. definitely can feel the freed up horses. if you are doin the clutch, id say just get the flywheel and enjoy.

ORIGINAL: littleflavio
in a sense of daily driving was it good? what brand did u had urs? and how much for everything plus labor?

no, i had one and it was good. it has less rotating mass.

What is stock flywheel weight cause the revs on all the stock A4s i've driven drop off like its made of lead.

The lighter flywheel lets the engine rev up faster for more acceleration, but it also slows down faster.
At the same (high) rpm, the heavier stockFW has more rotational energy than the LWFW, because it has more weight.
Force = Mass x Acceleration
The force your engine puts out doesn't change from changing the mass of the flywheel. less mass = more acceleration, but on the same token, faster deceleration as well.

WTF???? The revs drop off quicker on a LWFW than a stock flywheel, what are you talking about bob?
