Default .02 on lightweight flywheels

So I've been looking into a new flywheel since the clutch job has come, but since I'm dedicating this car to be more of a daily driven weekend road course toy, and keep in mind Im not extremely concerned with comfort. I'm reading on these lightweight flywheels. Since I retuned the car with its new found power when powering out of a turn the car seems a bit more squirrely. I've been told that the lightweight flywheel will remove some of that torque making it a little easier to maintain my speed in a turn. Prior to this new tune with less torque I was able to power thru most of a turn with the exception of entering it extremely hard. My least concern is the chatter and I'm not in any way shape or form worried about what the car will do in a quarter mile. What are yalls .02 on lightweight flywheels as opposed to a stock one

My first mods (which were done at the same time) were Berk HFC's and JWT flywheel. Awesome bang for the buck mods. I definitely recommend the JWT especially if you're due for a new clutch. Car is more responsive and so is the SRM. Noise is increased a bit but who cares?
