I don't think I'll get a chance to dyno only that package... I probably won't dyno for a while, but I'll tell you what my 'butt-dyno' says

Bottom-line is this.... in terms of E.T. it will give about the same... as what the Comptech Header does... 2-3 tenths. The power lost in the drive-train especially during hard-shifts is quite a bit!! Combine this with good tires and you have nearly a 0.5s improvement.

Good! So if my Clutch takes a dump at 9K miles & Acura won't fix it, I have an alternative.

You guys should ask Deansbluesi what price he can get you... to be fair to Dean as he has helped me out in the past!

Don't forget to factor in installation. This is even a tough one for me to consider doing myself, and I have done everything myself! From the look of the service manual, it is a pain to drop the tranny for a clutch swap. I know allmotor will do this himself , let me know how it goes! I have been wanting a lightened flywheel since the first time I drove it! p.s. I did not see this on Comptech's site... where did you find?

It will definately be more of a pain than the headers I think it
retails for $999.00, although I think that's too much for a clutch/flywheel IMO! A good friend gets a pretty deep reseller's discount with them, so he passes that on to me.

Comptech says its 60% lighter than stock... so that's a pretty BIG difference!!
