Lightweight flywheel without the noise?

The problem is changing from a dual mass to single mass flywheel. It doesn't really have to do with the weight of the flywheel, it's the design. Like Xan said,

The problem is changing from a dual mass to single mass flywheel. It doesn't really have to do with the weight of the flywheel, it's the design.

Like Xan said, if you want a lightened flywheel but do not want to have any additional noise, I would recommend having your factory flywheel lightened.

This is purely a personal feeling when it comes to noises and what not but I always relate clutch rattle or flywheel noise or anything like that to the character of the part and the vehicle. For example, if I were to ever purchase a Ducati, the very first thing I would do is get a drilled clutch cover so I can hear that dry clutch rattle. That noise is classic sportbike/ducati and I want to hear/celebrate it. Rattley clutches, clunky two piece full floating rotors, etc...In MY opinion...That is the soul of the car coming through. I enjoy/celebrate those sounds. I'm probably just weird like that though.
