its not as much hp with the flywheel as it is engine response. the lighter flywheel will make the engine feel peppyer(sp) when you rev it

It might be a very slight WHP increase due to loss of rotating mass with a lighter flywheel... but the real performance gain will be the throttle response feel, revving faster.

go with a chromoly flywheel like the ACT, aluminum can be trouble on SR's.

I have a ka24de. Thanks for the input guys. I appreciate all your help. I have already bought the stuff I just wondered what i should expect. I am having my motor rebuilt to stock with a spec stage 2 clutch, fidanza aluminum flywheel, drive shaft aluminum drive shaft and If I dont sell it a t25 turbo kit put together. This is my first 240 build so I dont really know what kind of power to expect. I would like to be able to keep up with stock z28s and gt stangs. Do you think its likely or are my hopes to high with this set up?
