I do a lot of rev match downshifting and engine braking, so maybe the lightened flywheel would not be in my best interest, but I do like the feel of the lighter and more free revving engine...I dunno...I'll figure that out and probably make an impulse buy one way or the other at the last second that totally contradicts all logic and reason
