In Reply To	Flywheels are said to release power not make power. posted by ZBlacktt on April 19, 2002 at 02:09 AM
Message	I'm not going to get into that semantical discussion about what is making power, and what is freeing up power. That's like arguing about whether a glass is half full or half empty. The fact is that lightweight flywheels and driveshafts don't show a significant difference at the rear wheels, where it counts. I'd like to race someone that has the same mods as me but with the lightweight flywheel and DS. From what I have seen, it doesn't help.
