It takes a little bit to get used to it revving a little easier/quicker. I had an hour drive home from having mine installed and was pretty well adjusted by the time I got home, though.

Revs go up AND down faster and the car definitely felt more responsive.

I'm running the Z1 lightweight flywheel. According to my bathroom scale w/ and w/o holding the flywheel, it's 13.5lbs. I think it's listed at 15lbs. Stock is ~31lbs.

Also, if iirc, the lightweight and midweight are both single mass versus the OEM being a dual mass, which means you'll get the chatter with either, so you may as well get the most benefit possible.
