6MT Flywheel

Is there a liquid center like VW & Audi?

Don't think so, but think it's a 2 disk clutch.

Re: 6MT Flywheel

I know it's a dual mass clutch....(so it's heavy)

But think of the power it should handle, like a twin turbo system.[img]/w3timages/icons/smile.gif[/img]

Hmm, what you guys think about a lightened flywheel? I'm pretty sure they in development already.

Re: 6MT Flywheel

From what I heard from people who put a single mass or lightened flywheels (when the OEM is a dual mass), the only negative is some clattering.

Of course, the best part is it will rev faster, and during stop and go, you may be able to fully release the clutch (slowly), and move at some speed without stalling.

Re: 6MT Flywheel

That is exactly the opposite effect of a lightened flywheel. You have to rev it more to get it going...
