i have an Exedy 3 pack single disk. I like it . But the true winner is the Exedy twin Only probblem , the category i run not allow more then a single disk clutch.

The Exedy single is grabs and holds perfect + not hard to drive at all.

If you have a money to invest on the twin, then get that. Much lighter on pedal then the single , specially vs the ACT but even with the Exedy single. Also much better for your drive train.

We just had the me1hdss put in with the streetlite flywheel. Clutch feels like its actually there now, and I havent really noticed the flywheel at all. So far we are happy with it all, no real change in driveability. Just feels grabbier. Oh and when all was said and done it was about 1700.00. installed.

599 shipped, i just saw for a little less from thmotorsports. New flywheel can be lighter which helps engine rev a bit quicker and removes some rotational weight. From what I understand good for quick power shifting? Downside to that is loss of the momentum that a heavier one has, also possibly a bit tougher to shift normally. Also, depending on material the flywheel is made of, you can have a higher heat transfer coefficient which may help prevent a burnt clutch in the future. Downside to material change that ive heard is it can become more of a maintenance issue. The new material may actually wear down quicker than stock steel flywheel. Not sure if that applies to our car.
Nick at DTM did my install, he strongly recommended I get a new flywheel there before he took the car apart. He was saying almost every evox he did a clutch swap on had a flywheel that a simple resurfacing would not completely restore. So, while you are already spending 1400 or so to have a clutch put in...another 300 may be worth it.
