WOW it must because of his FLYWHEEL!!!

or


it might be this thing called displacement, look it up

Light flywheels usually cause a loss in LOW end torque. However, on a motor like a b16, they have NO TORQUE anyways, so who cares if you lose bottom end power, they have NONE to begin with. B16s live at high rpms, so the lighter the flywheel, the FASTER you get into your powerband and VTEC which is where a b16 shines (5000rpms+)

if you have a 1.8l-2.0l, you motor has TQ from the displacement. so i wouldnt worry about running a light weight flywheel.

I have never really had any problems with light flywheels, whether aluminum , chromoly, or not.

the loss in TQ from a flywheel is negligible
