thread revival,

i've got 800mi on the bhr fly and the exedy stage 1 clutch. I have one word about this setup: Wow.


I'm very impressed with this flywheel, the car is running really really well with it. I'll be hitting the track in a month and i'll see how much time i've shaved off thanks to this bad *** flywheel.

Nice.

I always enjoy watching your videos of your ride. Post up another one with the BHR flywheel.

well i was having my trans replaced under the powertrain warranty, so everything was installed by my dealership. Originally the clutch instantly engaged as soon as the pedal was lifted. After about ~50-75 mi the pedal started to engage farther out, somewhat close to stock.

I just got BHR's welded pedal so I go through another round of re-adjusting the clutch pedal.

Is BHR's 9.0 lbs or 9.8 lbs?

Any comments of this vs. Racing Beat's 9 lb flywheel?

Any comments on BHR vs. Pettit's 8.5 lb flywheel? I'm still trying to decide what flywheel offers the most performance benefits.

So, if you're on the drag and you want a good launch, light weight flywheels don't let you drop the clutch from high rpm (~3k)? If not, then what is the proper technique to get a good launch with a lwfw?

if you are any good then you will be able to launch the car at idle with zero gas pedal
