[s-cars] Part: Lightweight Flywheel

<<<Clutch was from Spec... A word of warning.. it slipped worse than the
clutch 
I replaced. For the first 400 - 800 miles you must be VERY gentle with
it.
NO, Absolutely NO high boost pulls.

After the bedding in process, it grabs like a hooker on a hundred dollar

bill...
4000-5000 RPM drops not a problem.

Something to think about... the LWAFW's (generally) are not all that
quite 
with the clutch disengaged, mine rattles like a diesel :) (I think
Paul's 
does as well ???)

OHhhhhh boy, here we go again.  I'll agree with all of Mark's thoughts
(my LWFW was from NEA in NH), esp. on the idle rattle.  I will only add
that, yes, the rattle is worth the newfound spoolup and engine
diaharettic that resulted.  Oh and seems a few out there have less
rattly LWFW's, or so they claim.  Oh, and also, if you do a LWFW it's no
longer dual mass (horray the car gains some much needed clutch
character) and you cannot use the OE clutch.

And the short shifter you ask?  Weight it while you're at it, and your
adding up a fun fun combo to the LWFW / clutch.  Vehicular heroin, the
boost is silly and the car becomes well connected to the senses.  Even
sillier if you can get your software tuned after LWFW install, so real
world dial in is achieved.  I was able to gain some ignition advance as
result of the less parasitic motor load, thanks Mihnea, fun stuff.

And if you can swap in a 6 spd since you're in there doing it anyway.
LWFW and sticky clutch /SSK/6pd, recipe for both LWW (Lightweight
Wallet) and LWL (Lightweight License).  Powerband / gearing / drivetrain
feel combo is sublime, or is that subliminal.  Dunno.
