clutch flywheel combo

i know it has been said on here before but i couldnt find what i was looking for. basically im in the market for a new clutch/ flywheel. i have been looking at the SPEC's is it good to go with the same people that make the clutch. i dont know anything about good companies, but i was looking for around the stage 2 for the clutch and i dont know about the flywheels.

TIA

Hey you should seriously talk to Jan at www.revolutionmini.com he has incredible prices for Clutchmasters and they come as a clutch/flywheel/throw out bearing package. So you do not have to buy anything else. I do know off the top of my head that a stage 3(FX300) is like ~$900.00 shipped if memory serves me correct. It might be a little less, but I do not think that it is any more. Of corse a stage two would be even less, but I would definately talk to Jan, he is a great guy and if you do not buy from him he will still give valid advise and expertise.
his number is: 949-456-9590
Hope this helps you out.

Why are you replacing the flywheel?
For a "performance" reason or because the current one need replacing?

I currently have dinan. As you remember when I emailed you my dyno chart it pulled timming at 6200 and 6800. I have since added the DT BPV, OBX header and DDM along with using the 100 octane gas. I'm wondering if this has helped some with the timming issue as I could have been at 220 whp as you pointed out.

How is GIAC going to be different? Will it supersede the dinan all together and allow for much better gains?

Sharo,
it will have a higher rev limiter, more aggressive timing maps, more adaptive to the parts we add after the cylinder head and massive fuel reprogramming due to the very large injectors we are running to feed the car up top

this is a complete re-do of the ecu, not a normal flash like the previous GIAC files

Larger injectors to go with aggressive timing maps and advanced fuel reprogramming. That sounds sexy.

By the way, my rev limiter has been raised to 7200, so are we talking even higher to 7600 perhaps?

I can't wait to come by.
