does anyone have the ACT FLYWHEEL?

i will be purchasing the ACT street clutch but do not know which flywheel to go with. my car will have around 350whp and be daily driven with a few track days. is the ACT flywheel good enough? i've heard different opinions on 1 piece vs 2 piece, aluminum vs chromoly . because some people say get the act flywheel, others say get the fidanza, and some say get the prostreet.


please give me feedback.

btw,
resurfacing the flywheel sounds nice but i want to purchase a new flywheel.

a chromoly flywheel thats one piece is stronger and less prone to heat warpage than an aluminum flywheel. at 350whp, either one is good enough. i have an ACT waiting for install that i sold a fidanza to get so maybe i'm partial.

ACT is a great unit. I have installed a few in some evom members cars already. Feedback is good from all using it.

If yo are using a act clutch it would be better to use their flywheel and a matter of fact I am sure if you talk to a tech from act they will tell you they prefer you to use their flywheel with their clutch. It also makes sense too.

I know on several of their applications they want you to use their flywheel w/ their clutch.

I've always liked a Chromoly flywheel more then a Aluminum one.

Also, I like the Street lite over the Pro lite (pro lite is lighter, I think theres only one for the EVO application)

I have the ACT street clutch and flywheel and I love it , its alot harder than the stock but you dont have to push it all the way down and you dont even notice it after awhile , so yeah I would go with the flywheel.

I'm happy with my Prolite (10lbs). The only disadvantage of the lighter flywheel is shifting while driving slowly can be a pain since the revs drop so quick. Otherwise I love it.
