At the same time it was made of top notch material and quality , same thing with their lightweight crank pulley. When I dropped the tranny the second time and did a visual inspection of the flywheel it looked just as new as the day I installed it. Even After 8k or more miles it didn't even look like the pressure plate had touched it, I drive my car sporty like any 370 owner would but I am not reckless and try to test the limits of the parts I have installed lol All in all I was pretty impressed with the changes and hope all goes well with your upgrades. Curious to see how much improvement you get.
So you haven't had the flywheel while boosted? The thing I'm concerned about also is the long term reliability of an aluminum fly that will get beaten on with 600hp... I'm personally not a fan of Stillen or their customer service. They are pretty cheap though. About $100 less than southbends fly and like $150 cheaper than clutchmasters.

At that kind of horse power,I would go with what's tried,tested and true. You've come this far,what's another hundred$ for added piece of mind. I'd really hate to see you come back on the forum posting that your clutch blew up on you.

I have no idea what's been tried and tested that's why I'm asking what others opinions are that have the same setups that I'm looking at. I don't care if the flywheel is $100 or $1000. I just want it to work
