How many people on here have these, and what are your thoughts?. I really want to find one somewhere within the next few weeks to install with my next clutch. I was thinking that one of these would help put me in the mid 13s easier

 

If I remember correctly, there really isn't a significant difference over the OEM flywheel. Especially for the price Comptech wants for the part new. I know a few people on the forum have installed them in the past, so you might want to search to confirm my thought.

Personally, I would advise going with an OEM clutch and flywheel setup. Unless you plan on running a significant amount of boost.

I am using an OEM clutch set up with 60K miles on the car, and have no issues while using a Supercharger.

 

There's a big difference on the CT flywheel over stock. It's a lot lighter & changes the system to a single mass(regular) flywheel as opposed to the dual mass stock setup.

However I think you need to use the CT clutch as well with it. I'm not sure though.

Also note that the 1 guy that kept blowing theirs had the UR crank pulley. That seemed to be the problem.

 

The Comptech lightweight flywheel and clutch was not designed to have any increase in "strength" than the OEM unit.

Stock clutch + supercharger was a disaster for me on hard shifts into 3rd and 4th. Lots of slip.

 

You can not use the OEM clutch with a lightweight flywheel. You must use a sprung clutch to achieve some drivetrain dampening.

on the UR pulley. And it wasn't the Comptech clutch/flywheel that was having the problem necessarily I believe it was broken OEM pressure plates which when you lose all drivetrain dampening (via stock crank pulley and/or stock dual-mass flywheel) is bound to happen.

 

I have one on my car and have loved it from the beginning. There were some issues of tearing up the pressure plate in the beginning, but the problem wasn't the flywheel, it was the flywheel used in conjunction with the URpully. The motor needs some damping and when you remove both the stock flywheel and front pully, there is none. I'm in the process of removing my turbo and tranny to replace the clutch and put the stock flywheel back on. Should be done in about 2-3 weeks. I'm putting my completly back to stock to concentrate on the "other" car.


The comptech flywheel can only accept the stock pressure plate and a sprung disk to help damning. it could be used with a solid hub, but you'd really put a beating on the pressure plate with it.

 

My Supercharger has only been on the car for 10K miles or so, and I don't drive the car in city to often. More often than not the miles are all interstate, which may be one reason why I haven't encountered a problem. Second reason may be, I am only running the standard boost pulley.

I mentioned in another thread that I drive slow as shit... Could be reason number 3.

I bought from this site and they were very helpful. They only charged me $9 for shipping too.

 

My experience is similar. It makes the car so much more driveable. Rev matching is so much easier. I love the setup.

I'm not experiencing any noticable slipping with my setup except on initial engagement. I have not pulled my CDD out yet but I did buy a replacement steel braided brake line to do that mod. I'm hoping that will speed up the engagement. Once the clutch is fully engaged, slipping is not too much of an issue. ThinJim is putting down over 460whp using the Comptech flywheel and friction disk using the stock pressure plate. Use that as your guideline on what this setup can handle.

The lightweight flywheel is the way to go if you can afford it. If you can hold out 2-3 weeks, maybe you and ThinJim can work out a deal.

 

thanks guys, now i just got to see what site is cheaper to order from because i know there is a discount code on here for the acura oem site.

 

this site is $39 cheaper than the acuraoem site with the discount code. Does anyone have a discount code for this site?

 

if your going to use the stock flywheel, then those parts are ok. If you get the comptech flywheel, you'll need a different clutch disk. The OEM disk is a solid hub, you'll need a sprung hub to use with an aluminum flywheel.

 

im just going with everything OEM. seems like trying to get aftermarket stuff is a hattle and cost more.

 

guess not, i will be ordering from here today. Going on a buisness trip to VA for work this week. I wish i had someone to take the car to the shop when the parts come so when I get back fridays she will be good as new. Oh well, with my work schedule she wont be fixed till the thursday after this coming one.

 

anyone? trying to save 5%....

 

I ordered my clutch today, they told me all that extra stuff other than the clutch, flywheel and throw out bearing was a waste of change unless there is damage that calls for them. Anyhow I hope to have them by EARLY next week so I can put the car in the shop the next day and hope to get it back with enough time to break it and hit the track next friday. Imma make sure i get a tranny flush and refill of the honda manual tranny fluid or whatever cleaner they got.

 

not trying to thread jack, but since we have the dual mass flywheels, why dont we just get the stock flywheel professionally lightened. if our flywheel is say 29 lbs. it should be good with a 10 pound lightening. that way we can use the stock clutch. i know a guy that professionally lightens flywheels here in san diego and i'm thinking about going down there to ask what he can do for me.

 

good post

 

No actually it wasn't. Dual-mass flywheels can not be lightened due to their design.

 

darn. whats the benifit of a dual mass flywheel?

 

Smooth off-throttle cruising. Just general increased driveability.

 

Mostly a smoother engagement. The dual mass flywheel with our car incorporates a solid hub on the friction disk. Cars without and before dual mass used solid flywheels and a sprung hub on the friction disk. The sprung hub does what the dual mass does, reduce the shock to the drivetrain.

 

Is there any difference between PN# 22105-PGE-315 and PN# 22105-PGE-305 on this page? They're both Clutch Sets
