Quick flywheel Q?

Are aftermarket flywheels interchangable between FC's and FD's as long as they are both turbo cars?

I know that different counterweights are needed.

They are interchangeable but you will see ALOT more of a difference on an FC as the FD's stock flywheel is 10lbs lighter than an S4 and 8lbs lighter than an S5..

I know its not what you ask. but I figure its worth mentioning depending on who's reading.

This only applies to AFTER MARKET flywheels. Stock flywheels are not interchangeable.
