I can tell you this, the car does rev faster and pulls harder, but the clutch is now on or off, a little noise at idle and it does chatter a bit. Well worth it I have no regrets, and this is from a daily driver, Its a great mod, it doesnt give HP persay, but does reduce roting mass.

I had it (light flywheel) on my stage IV and had it removed. It all comes on in about a half inch of clutch throw. If you have music on and fail to hear the engine, it's tough. I let a friend drive it and he was about in tears before he could get it rolling. Yea, I got used to it, but it wasn't worth the extra effort.
