I just took it off the scale and it weights 17lbs, I'm trying to see if it would be worth to get a lightweight flywheel 11lbs. I'm not to stick with the stock. Thanks

I thought it was around 20 to 30 but 17 isn't bad

I have the xact flywheel by ACT (11 pounds I think) and I think it was worth the money. I noticed better engine response and slightly better acceleration.

How is your deceleration? Does it slow down quicker too? And when you let off the gas is your speed being maintained or does it go down fast?

I really didn't it notice it slow down a whole lot quicker, maybe just a tiny bit quicker.

I start to slow down when I let off the gas, but it's not like hitting the brake.
