You should be able to find a Fidanza
Have you a modded car already Im sure you will know that this will only increase your throttle response, and 1st gear, If you have a relatively stock car you will feel some ill effects when the road starts to rise and you have no reciprocating mass to assist the turning of the engine What are your reasons?? |

As the bat said, check out fidanza...
OR You may be able to get some of the weight machined out of the stocko.. might not get it as light as the fidanza - but then you might not want it that light due to the reasons mentioned by the bat above...also might save you a bit of moolah to spend on other things. |

thanks for the replies guys, so far ive got a trust airinx pod air filter, B&M short shifter, hurriane 4-2-1 headers, magnaflow high flow metal cat, and a 4" cannon made for civics but sounds awsome and gave quite a bit of power from just the cannon, stil running the standard 2 inch piping though, just the basics.. do you think its worth getting a flywheel?
cheers |

If you're still interested in a light weight flywheel, Jim Bob on Fordlaser.com is trying to put together a group buy for a custom made PBR chrome-moly job to suit B6 & BP motors. Price will hopefully be around the $450 mark...

Love ya work But for the record that will ONY make big power when attached to a civic Jerry What JICs do you have ...the SF-1s or SA-1s Usually you would be best getting your TB bore out with new plate or grab a lerger one off another car and have an adapter made up Is good for a few hp, not mountains but will help get the most out of cams etc ie: more duration and lift will show best gains when air is not impeded in its delivery Last edited by boostedbatman; 20-08-2006 at 06:44 AM. |

My theory is "Paying out a ricer a day keeps the trees at bay!" Seems to have worked so far, we got through Rally Q with only hitting a cow!
