    Default fidnaza flywheel

    Is a 7.5 lbs flywhhel too light? Will I have to rev the piss out of it to "start off". Or should I try to find a little heavier one like a 10lb.
    Thanks in advance

    you wont have to rev it it per say, it'll just take a moment longer to get underway - just don't try moving at low rpms cause it just aint happening

    Less engine rotational mass is always a good thing.

    Look into an Exedy flywheel(9.5lbs), If your getting a new flywheel id get a new clutch also...
    Boost under slow construction...

    Actually not always. More engine rotational mass means more intertia that keeps the engine spinning, therefore keeps the RPMs up when shifting ( less loss of rpms ) - whereas with a Fidanza 7lb flywheel, everytime you shift, your RPMs will drop pretty fast due to less rotational mass. But you'll rev up faster. So it all depends in your application ( if it came down to motorsports )

    I'm running a 7LB flywheel on my setup and I would never go back to the stock flywheel again (18 lbs). Everything is better about it; can't speak for turbo application though since I've never been boosted.
