Which tranny do you have? the b16 one that came with an lsd or and ls one? I personaly would add an lsd to the ls tranny or if you have the b16 one i'd swap in the ls 5th gear. Never had any problems out of my 6 puck ACT clutch, it's all in what you want to do with the car

Well, its not just upgrading the flywheel, your gunna need a more aggressive clutch set up also. The weight of a flywheel, weve gone over a few times on here, Some people prefer lighter, some prefer heavier, its about driving style. If your a slow shifter and not very good at getting the car into gear, go with a heavier flywheel, and you wont fall outta boost as bad. if your a good driver and dont miss gears very often a lighter one will allow quicker revs. But id go with something like an Action 1MD six puck clutch. and if you want something a lil more aggressive...go with the 2MD
