An intresting article there Shroonie.

Not sure if it was because I had been driving an 1.8 auto whilst the zs was being worked on, but the flywheel seems to make a big difference 1st to 3rd, put your foot down and it just seems to make it to the redline so much quicker!!!

Although I did notice that at slow speeds you cant take your foot off the acclerator as it slows down alot quicker. The lightweight fly obvious doesnt keep the momentum the same as a heavier one. Not a problem just something to get used too.

Id recommend one, If they added bhp to the car people would be queueing up for them. But imo its made more difference than any induction/ exhaust, not driven a 180 without cams but imagine it has a bigger effect then them too.
