Whoa!
  If you have a turbo motor you have a turbo Flywheel.  That
means you must also have a Turbo Clutch as its larger than the
4kq unit.  You want to keep the clutch matched to the flywheel.
IE...5kt flywheel uses 5kt clutch.  The "UPGRADE" would be the
much lighter flat face flywheel off a 91' 200q  which also has a
strong clutch than the 5ktq.  But you would want to have the
rotatign assembly balanced if you did this.
