clutch flywheel turbo

[N-one]

im lookin to upgrade my transmission before i boost my b16a. anyone got anysuggestion for a good clutch flyhwheel combo. i ve heard that lighter flyhwheels dont allow your turbo to spool as good is this true?

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

no i ve got the sir b16 tranny i think the y21 w/out lsd im looken to put in an lsd diff this winter but i geuss my main question was the flywheel i ve got a buddy that has a heavier flywheel cause he says it allows your turbo to spool better. i d like to be running around 10-12 lbs of boost in the spring.

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

No,heavier flywheel doesn't allow you to boost higher. Personally I would save the money and keep the stock flywheel and of course go with a more aggressive clutch.
