I have a factory flywheel in my crx that has been shaved. Engine response is almost INSTANT. great mod.

normally if you give the gas a quick jab it revs to like 2-4k. WHen I do it i can right to5 or 6.... revs that much quicker.

My co-worker has a 99 Si, and he slapped on a pair of AEM gear, a DC header, short shifter, and intake. It was altright. He bought a comptech flywheel ... and jesus christ ..... that car was unbelievably fast. The diferance was unimaginable. A lot of my friends bought LW flywheels after that. Good things, unless you're ont he highway. - Matt
