RE: [T3] lightened flywheel HELP!!!(PLEASE READ)

["Erkson, Toby" <toby.erkson@intel.com>]

To answer your initial question, no.  I'm thinking the whole assembly wasn't
balanced for one, and I agree with Keith P. that the endplay wasn't/isn't
set properly.

I've run with a lightened flywheel in my 2.0 and never had an operation
issue with it.  The only issue I did have with it was shifting!  You really
gotta shift quickly and it sure does hone one's double-clutching skills :-)
I'm back to a stock flywheel and am happier.  I would recommend the
lightened flywheel to a race-tweaked engine but not to any street driven
car.  Russ, they're not THAT bad! :)
