-The question was whether or not it made any sense at all to go back to an OEM flywheel after already upgrading. The ONLY argument I have ever read toward a heavier flywheel, is that the turbo may spool a bit faster due to the increased load on the engine.

-If I wouldn't notice the difference switching back, the I would use the Exedy Stage 2 and go back to the OEM flywheel.
I have the Exedy Stage 2.5 (2.5 is the revised stage 2 design after issues they had with the original design.) I have the S2.5 with their flight weight flywheel. Exedy stopped included the flywheel with their clutch after complaints about chatter. They now sell it seperately for 'racing use.'

If I ever had my trans out and was keeping my clutch I wouldn't hesitate to swap back in the oem flywheel. Unfortunalty should my trans come out anytime soon then I'm just going with the twin disc setup and never worring about slipping again.
