using a stock fly will help you put load on the motor and spool the turbo quicker.

[Hybrid_Coupe]

not only that, it will keep the turbo spooled on shifts. especially if your new to the turbo honda thing, i can can pretty much tell you, your going to fall outta boost when you first start driving your car. it takes a little getting used to. Theres no need to change the flywheel out. im running a stock gsr flywheel on my setup. for a turbo setup..the absolute lightest i would go would be about 12 lbs. Now for clutch...Action makes whats calle dthe 1OD its a slightly modified pressure plate with an miba/organic compound disc. really light and smooth to drive. but will handle the extra hp you wanna put down. but im one of those people, why upgrade twice, if you plan on making more power later...get a clutch that will work for you when you plan to upgrade.

My set up doesn't really spool at all in first gear, I don't know why but i don't think it build enough load in first to spool, Once i get out of first it spools great and then dumps out at about 6500 RPMs,

as for needing a heavier fly for a turbo setup. isnt this the reason that companies like fidanza and such make a lightwiehgt aluminum fly and also a steel flywheel. one for lighter torque loads and the other for boost applications.


bo, as for clutches i have an ACT HD Pressure Plate and an ACT Organic Street disc, once i get them in i let u know how they work and such.

The light weight flywheel will also aide in Throttle response as well as helping spool the turbo up just fine. theres 2 types generally of Lightened flywheels. Streetable and track. the streetable ones are usually around 11 - 14 lbs. the tarck use ones are generally around 7-9 lbs, use the street. And just to clarify a few things i noticed...

1.) you buy a clutch in regards to how much TORQUE your applying, NOT hp. Torque moves the vehicle, Hp keeps it going.

2.) stock axles are solid axles, there hardened to an extent and cryo can help but the break because there solid. A 600 hp rated axle from many like Driveshaft shop can be hollow to give a little under load and preload. the initial shock of even a D16Z6 boosting 7 psi at 5500 rpm launch is not what the OEM axle was designed for.

[Calesta]

7-9 pounds is definitely streetable. If you're going to spend the money on an aftermarket flywheel, get the lightest possible one within reason. 7-9 pounds is reasonable, 4-5 is not.

On axles- I would recommend beefing up the differential before going to aftermarket axles. I would much rather break axles than differentials- they're much easier to replace!

yea my fidanza fly is only 7.5 lbs and i cant wait to put that in. brett has only great things to say about it.

[Calesta]

I love love love love mine.

I've been running my 7.5lb for about 4 years now...no problems whatsoever.
