I want it to blip so that's my next investment.
You mean dual-mass, not twin disk, right? The only reason we have 30lb flywheel is cause by design it's a dual mass to keep the car quiet so that it'll sell to a wider market. Some people are pansies and b1tch bout noise on a sports cars. One of the biggest threads here is about noise :smh:

Correct Sir.... TBH IMO I would prefer the car to have the maximum ability/modification when modding to get the best bang per mod per say.

But for some people their intended use for the car is different than others. Also location has alot to deal with it.

I was kinda pissed at first about the road noise on my 370, but mosty because I could hardly hear the engine rpm over the tires. Solution: long tube headers and catback
