Dear Listees: In a few weeks I will replace the clutch in my '90 Carat, and have decided to surface the flywheel also. A freer revving motor would be nice, so the questions are: 1. If the flywheel is lightened, will that give improved response to throttle? 2. What about the down sides, such as increased vibration, easier to stall while lugging, etc...... 3. If not this, then how to get an easier revving motor? Get the Audi 5 cyl? Again, thank you for your support. Randy Bergum Disneyland, USA |
