d15b swap. stg 2 clutch or lt flywheel 1st?
 
so im going to get a d15b into my eg hatch, basically was wondering if i will see any noticeable gains with a lt flywheel (9-12lbs). car will have I.H.E...or should i just get a stage 2 clutch instead? thanks

i know, but it will grab better. basically i would like to do the flywheel and clutch eventually, but i need a new engine and tranny now and only have the means for one or the other. so i would like input as too which i should do first while the tranny and what not isnt in the car.

i assume this is a daily driver with the d15b?...if it is, i believe ACT stage 1 clutch with a 11-12 lb lightened flywheel should do well on the streets....I/H/E will have minimum gains on the motor itself, if you seek power on this motor, F/I is the way to go...unless you have tons of money to burn and make an all motor d-series(props to you if you can do that)

if ur gonna change ur clutch u might as well do the flywheel and save on labour instead of taking everything apart again for the flywheel later on

would i notice any gains with a lt flywheel?

with lt F.W no gains in H.P,but trottle response is instantainious,it's a bit trick to drive,but it take getting use to.You'll see better gas maleage(less rotating mass). if your on a tight budget do the lt F.W
