My was lightened 3-4lbs. I am the only one thats done this because I am special. It cost about $125 to be done but be careful you might mess ur flywheel up. I think I gained about 10-15hp from this


















J/K I don't know how much hp I freeed up

I have AL flywheel and love it. It revs so much faster and seems to have more power than before. I waiting untill the dragstrip opens before I really know what the difference is.And yes, I can still do big burn-outs,drive down the freeway,climb hills, and cruz town with out any problems.The AL flywheel is much lighter that stock.Do a search on the topic and you will find out more.

Good luck
Jason

PS. For those of you that liked the UDP you will like the AL flywheel even more!!

had my stock flywheel lightened about 3 lb.. car liked it, but didn't really see THAT much of a difference.. it helped, but the butt dyno barely noticed. cost was $75 for a resurface and lighten. ($25 to resurface and 50 to lighten)

Jason answered all the ?'s you need to know in one shot. Instead of e-mailing him a buncha times like i did.
But he was a great help and my Flywheel is in route to my house.
It'll be on next weekend hopefully
