the weight itself is not going to be bad for your engine or anything?! That is a significant weight reduction over the stock flywheel. You'll really notice the difference in first and second gear. the car will climb through the same rpm range a lot quicker. Therefore you're acceleration will be quicker. It will also cause a slightly lesser load on the engine so you might not build as much boost in first. I'd say its a good upgrade though

I'd say good for GTE, bad for GE...
you'll notice it picks up/drops revs a lot quicker & will likely notice more tendency to "bog" off boost. The gains will be mainly in slicker shifts I would have thought (which for a turbo is great as you spend less time losing/rebuilding boost)
