Flywheel compare/contrast
Is the 9lb flywheel really bad for street use? oppose to the 12lb or 17lb? Im thinking about getting a new flywheel, cuz im getting a new clutch and i might as well do the flywheel as well.. But Im not sure what weight to go with.. any advice would be awesome

I have a 17lbs RB, and on my S5 TII i noticed a good difference in 2nd and especially 3rd gears. My friend has a 12lb one in his FD, and i don't really think either one is that much harder to get going from stop. For drag yeah you want that momemtum for a good 60', but you can compensate for that by just launching a little higher.

You can't judge a flywheel simply by its weight.
