: Do I need a Aluminum Flywheel?

I'm always looking for new add ons and was wondering would I see any major benefits by switching/adding an aluminum flywheel? Would the weight reduction over any decent HP increase. I have found a good priced one and was just curious from others experience if it was worth the purchase? My clutch is close to 1.5 year old, if I move forward with this should I get new clutch also?

Thanks for your comments.

If you do go forward with the aluminum flywheel purchase I would spend the money on a nice new clutch while I was in there, since you're in there already. You should notice a quicker acceleration with the Aluminum flywheel.

Yeah if you were doing a clutch replacement then you could upgrade to an alum flywheel. but dont bother if your clutch is still new.that would be a waste of $$. spend the money on other bolt on mods like headers and tune
