had a lightened flywheel fitted to my coupe a couple of years ago .... yes they make a difference ..... its a good mod if you are having a clutch change at the same time .... pickup is faster 0-60 is faster .. any weight loss to the rotating mass of the engine is good

Mines was lightened by Barbz , he took the most of it he thinks is 'safe' said any lighter and it would stall too easily, made a noticeable difference ,pick up was sharper and certainly revved free'er , engine felt livelier all round

Its Probably easier to stall --- only downside I can think off , but you soon adapt
