did yuou get the aluminum or the steel lwfw? because the aluminum one isw just stupid light. and how come some 2 people complain of constant chatter and others dont even mention it?

and what causes this chatter? if it when the clutch is engaged in gear at low rpm?

its aluminum . and what it is that the stock dual flywheel spins in opposite directions eliminating the chatter or so i believe.

the aluminum one from ecs is 6.5 lbs!!!! no wonder ur chattering like an add kid on speed!the stock wheel is 25 lbs. ur less than 1/4 the weight of the stock flywheel. 1/2 is about all u wanna go and amintain normal driveability. the steel one is 13 lbs and wont chatter like urs.
