Default need new clutch

After 4 years with dual mass flywheel and sachs sport disc and PP. I finally ripped the flywheel at DI.
It has been said that a solid flywheel will break the crank. Anyone break a crank???
Was wondering should I go with what worked for 4 years or go with lightned flywheel and TEC clutch.
What is everyone using for connection between engine and tranny???

i have a good low mile solid flywheel (not necessarily lightweight) for a good price if you're interested.

Get a lightweight AASCO flywheel and use a factory clutch. Great combo - the factory clutch is easier on the transmission which is the weak link in the drivetrain.

I have never heard of someone breaking the crank with a LWF.

I was a witness to this event.

However, I've never heard of this happening in a Spec Boxster.
