a clutch change, then it's worth it to do the flywheel. I would not recommend going thru the labor just for the flywheel. Time it with anudder job. Peeps will tell you "drivability" may become an issue, that you have to relearn how to clutch your starts, and that shifts may become a little more notchy because the flywheel doesn't maintain speed as much between shifts and drops RPM's quicker with your foot off the gas. Most of that stuff is hardly worth metioning, IMO. Yeah, I noticed a difference but my "retraining" period probably lasted all of three minutes. Instincts take over, if you know what I mean. The benefits are worth it, especially when coupled with a lightened driveshaft and an underdrive pulley. The best way I can explain it is that you won't feel more power, but it feels more available. At idle, the tach needle blips quicker when I tap the gas. As far as how this translates to real world driving, I dunno. I think peeps like to call it "throttle repsonse." I didn't feel more torque, but I felt like I was getting to it quicker. Clear as mud? Oh yeah, I run a Jun Chromoly, a very nice, if not a little pricey piece. JWT and RPS have good reps I believe. You want to take the clutch into consideration when picking out a flywheel.
