I had one and I loved it. To me, It was very streetale. I got stuck on a VIOLENT hill once and it was a little bit harder to take off but other than that, the flywheel was cool. Stop n go traffic wasnt that bad either. The car felt faster and picked up speed quicker.

There was a problem with my flywheel and clutch not getting along very well. The clutch started slipping VERY badly in a month. It got so bad that the car wasnt streetable. The shop told me that some people were complaining about the flywheel and they gave me a lightweight steel flywheel. I dont know if this was a shop error or a bad flywheel but I liked both.

shouldn't be effected as the TPS handles the idle via rpms.
