Resurface or get an aftermarket?

Just trying to do what's best for the car. I don't want to have to crack the tranny open again for a stupid stock flywheel, nor do I want to spend money I don't have to.

Opinions?

For mods I have 3" TBE, Hard I/C pipes, CAI, EBC @ 22psi, Dynoflash, Walbro 255, Greddy BOV

I plan on getting cams/gears/AFC in the future. Should I just get the flywheel?

I'm looking at the Gruppe-S deal with the ACT clutch/CCI flywheel for $725 shipped. What quality is CCI? Never heard of them....

 

It depends on how hard you are on the parts. The stock flywheel is a good part. It is about 14.5lbs which is pretty light, but it is a bit thin which makes it prone to warp for those that tend to ride the clutch. I can't speak for the quality of the CCI part. I have no experience with it. I don't even know if it is aluminum or steel. Our flywheel which will be available in two weights is going to be very nice; much thicker than stock and yet still lighter, but they won't be available for about 3 weeks.

 

so the act flywheel will be available in 3 weeks???? like 100% for sure??

 

I had my stocker resurfaced,but it is some hard #hit.The shop that resurfaced had to use their diamond wheel as their normal wheel chattered bad.Only good for about 1 resurface and depending on how much material is removed may not even be good with 1 resurface.

 

Not as sure as death and taxes, but pretty close. I can check later today to find out more if you like.

 

can you let me know

 

We cut them all the time with no trouble. It is not a matter of hardness. The problem is that you shouldn't use the same grade stone as you do with cast iron. It doesn't take diamond though.
