Gainzy Posted April 10, 2014 Posted April 10, 2014 Will be looking into a lighter flywheel but would I need another map afterwards just with the rev gain? Thanks Quote
Nick85 Posted April 10, 2014 Posted April 10, 2014 Are these actually worth buying? Could be tempted if they are. Quote
Rob H@RCH Engineering Posted April 10, 2014 Posted April 10, 2014 I would say it will effect the map slightly, if it revs faster, comes on boost faster the fuel will need to come in earlier too, it will alter the torque and other things too so would be worth getting the map checked at least. Quote
Gainzy Posted April 10, 2014 Author Posted April 10, 2014 See that's what I thought I need to change my release bearing so I was going to buy a lighter flywheel Quote
richardc9052 Posted April 10, 2014 Posted April 10, 2014 Boost will still come on at the same rpm, it will be more free revving and there will be less power loss to the wheels. Quote
mattyD Posted April 10, 2014 Posted April 10, 2014 A bit of a waste of money really, could be spent on other things with better gains Quote

RobSR Posted April 10, 2014 Posted April 10, 2014 Waste of money i think. If you've got a decent powered EP you don't want em revving quicker than the already do imo. Quote
Gainzy Posted April 10, 2014 Author Posted April 10, 2014 I'm only wanting to do it as my clutch release bearing is goosed I wouldn't do it otherwise Quote
richardc9052 Posted April 10, 2014 Posted April 10, 2014 Its definitely worth it. Ive been in a few cars with them, one a glanza and another an ae111, the rest arent worth mentioning. The glanza and ae111 where completely different beasts when it came to the lower to mid rpms Quote
Gainzy Posted April 10, 2014 Author Posted April 10, 2014 ^ Just swap the bearing then lol!Might aswell go balls out after taking it all apart lol Quote
