New performance upgrade

I know a lot of you guys are looking for upgrades. This is a CL type-S upgrade, but the 04 TL uses the same setup. This is for the 6 spd only.

It's a nice upgrade but I wouldn't consider a flywheel/clutch upgrade until it was pretty close to having to be replaced.

Makes sense. I'm sure somebody will get it soon or later.

The car will rev quicker and the gears will engage faster. Drawbacks possible highspeed engine vibration

I had a LTW Tckline flywheel in my M3. Well worth the money.

Sounds good, but what are the drawbacks?

If this was a win / win situation I think the Acura engineers would have included it on the new TL.

for 6mt people, doesn't the clutch engage fast as it is? or does it just do it at a different point that normal clutches? if so, maybe that's why people would be hesitant.

It's a bit harder to drive. The lighter flywheel spools up faster but it makes it easier to stall, say on the steep streets of San Francisco.
