Paul,
	I have the same flywheel but not certain which version.  I have
never heard any squeaking noises.  Just noises like rolling a penny
around in a metal bowl at low rpms with higher load.  I also can hear
the transmission when in neutral like a tick tick tick sound...once the
engine is warm/hot.
	I know of 2-3 others that have the same symptoms..but none that
have squeaking.

Subject: [s-cars] Lightweight Flywheel Users: Long-Term Feedback report?

I've been reading some side effects of lightened flywheels on other
cars, so
maybe my problems are normal?

Anyways I have a ASW/JB Racing Aluminum Flywheel manufactured on 5/01 (I
think). ASW says it's one of their first ones.

After install, i noticed that the car drones very annoyingly under
2000RPM.
When accelerating from a dead stop, the car makes a very loud squeeking
noise.

I've got somethings to fix with my car, like the exhaust, and rear main
seal...so maybe when I get back int here and put it back together, some
of the
noises will go away, but I'd like tog et some User Feedback with their
experiences with their ALuminum FLywheels.

perhaps this is just a by product of poor workmanship by moi.

Thanks,
Paul
