Go to www.ct-engineering.com and look for an authorized "Acura" dealer of Comptech parts in your area. There is one in my area that actually sells and installs Comptech parts with warranty even on brand new vehicles, including SC. However, you might want to check the availability of the flywheel though.

The only ones you'll be able to find are leftovers which will be extremely hard to find. I suggest you try looking at other manufacturers (Fidanza, ACT, etc) .
