Chris, I thought I liked you but I realize now that I only liked you when you were stock.

Ok, so first your car is "stock" (I guess Motons don't count). Now, there's also the matter of a cup gearbox. So come on, spill the beans, what else is there that you "should've mentioned"?

And BTW, how many freaking cup boxes are available in Ottawa? Seems to be a really popular upgrade this year

She was a good passenger. Huge smile. Thumbs up periodically to make sure she wasn't about to puke.

She can ride shotgun anytime as long as she brings nice looking single girls along with her.

John - how does the 9 lb 997.2 flywheel feel on the street? I don't want to walk the fine line of having too light of a flywheel.

I bet the flywheel is not a problem (since Porsche put it on its road car, the 7.2 RS), as long as the clutch is streetable..

Yup. She's going to be an expensive one.

Itll be tough to bring more than one in my car. I did have 5 girls plus me leaving the bar tuesday night but it was a short trip back to their place.

Gents, I have the complete kit which includes the RS clutch disk. From the RS flywheel, ring gear, T/O bearing, guidetube, bolts to Sachs PP for $1,975.00

FYI Porsche has three different flywheel suppliers and the weight will range from 10.5 lbs to 11.4lbs ( I have weighed these units over the last 15 years.
