velocity flywheel is only $150 (w/ core).  stock flywheel is 17.5lbs,
velocity flywheel is 10lbs.  7.5 lbs. removed.... you literally can feel the
results, and see the results as you pull 2-3 cars over your friends..
oh..out in cali.. is cost $250 to pull the tranny out and install, I
recommend you install w/ a new clutch to save money..
