Hi there fellow S4ers

I am thinking ahead to my next clutch (stock now) and am considering the South Bend Stage 3 daily or endurance. (maybe the sachs but I'm inclined to just spend the money on the SB and not look back) I'm Stg 2 single pulley now and might go dual pulley later. (stock crank pulley now)

One of my goals with a clutch upgrade is to reduce rotating mass to quicken engine revs and falls during shifting, but not too much. I do not want to add a lot of vibration - keep a mostly civilized daily drivability.

I searched this forum but couldn't find any discussion about the SB Stg3 flywheel specifically.

How does the SB Stg3 flywheel feel/perform compared to stock? should I also go to a solid, lighter SC crank pulley?

Thanks

It is an absolute blast to drive (revs quicker). Not much different then stock in terms of drive ability. I noticed zero chatter and I have all upgraded mounts as well.

jesus is any part of your car left from the factory????

thanks for the reply.

did you install it yourself or a shop? if a shop, did you buy the clutch from the shop or buy it yourself and take it to the shop?

HAHA I think Ive done just about every mod. No I had an Indy shop do. I got the clutch from from an online vendor and brought to shop. Ill try to find where I got it from at the time it was the cheapest around.
