Revs a little quicker...rpms drop a little quicker lol...I have a 7.5lb fidanza in my car and love it but others feel like it's not very daily driveable...I think they are just lil bitches.

very good throttle response but, when you go to light like I did (act pro lite) then car likes to randomly stall

i have a 12 lbs XTD on my Teg and it's awesome! if it stalls then just adjust your idle speed.

It has nothing to do with idle speed. The fly wheel is so light that when you are on the gas and let off of it the rpm drops suddenly and stalls

I know what you guys are talking about, how when you rev it up like above 3500 when the revs drop the rpms will dip low...I have the 7.5lb fidanza and NEVER had the car stall on me so you guys may want to check other reasons and stop accusing the flywheel.
