Good luck with the build Al
Got a spare turbo here if you fancy it? It's only a little one, good for about 300BHP, but it'll help yer 0-60 times

Top secret Ad,
You have no idea mate, i changed my mind, only decided 100% yesterday. It's a bit of an experiment tbh.
Sure it will look fantastic mate, if your after more torque though is it worth splashing out for a lightened flywheel let me know if interested and i will dig out the link for it

Do it please Paul, these oem flywheels weigh a ton.
Lightened Aluminium Flywheels
Fidanza aluminum flywheels are made from the highest quality 6061 T6 aluminum. The material is fantastic for strength, heat dissipation and of course reduction in weight. The friction surface they use is an icredibly strong 1045 steel. The flywheel friction plates are milled to meet their high specifications. A Fidanza aluminum flywheel can mate with any type of clutch material, including organic, kevlar, ceramic, metallic and sintered iron. Fidanza attach the replaceable friction surface with military grade aerospace fasteners. With these replaceable friction plates there is no need to replace the entire flywheel when the clutch or flywheel is at the end of it's life, saving time and money. The ring gears they use are also made from 1050 steel and are heat treated for durability. The flywheel ring gears are heated then pressed on and secured with grade 8 button screws. Fidanza were the first to utilize a stepped dowel system in most of their flywheel applications. This doweling method ensures that once the pressure plate is installed the dowels cannot be removed because they become locked into place.
No chromemoly can compete with the awesome serviceablity, strength and superior design of Fidanza's aluminum flywheels. If there was a better material out there, they would be using it.
