Question regarding Fidanza flywheel

[fiyota]

Well, last summer I swapped in a fresh 7m-gte to replace my 7m-ge... Long story short I was unable to find an R154 at the same time as the swap, and still haven't found one yet.

So I already have an act 6-puck with the extreme pressure plate... the package is rated for something like 450ft/lbs, way past the limits of the w58 I know.

Currently I'm using a stock w58 clutch and N/A flywheel (i've put about 20,000km on this clutch), but with the BIC DDP, 3" catless exhaust, k&n fipk, and 10-12psi it's slipping the clutch under boost. I'm actually very suprised the stock clutch has held up this long, and I'm sure it has a lot of life left in it, but not at this power level.

So, getting to my question, Findanza only makes a flywheel for the turbo engine. Are the flywheels for the turbo and non turbo engines the same? Will the fidanza flywheel work with the w58?

its the same flywheel. U need to be careful using a fidanza both for balance of the engine are for more importantly its material welding it self to ur clutch material also i have found they wear out rather quick (which i know is why there are inserts that are on back order hmmm)

fidanza make flywheels for the n/a and the turbo.....i just ordered one for my mge.....

this is where i got it.. www.a2motorsports.net ask for chris

and 450hp isnt way past the limit on a w58....it maybe pushing the limit but im sure youll get by for quite awhile if you dont dump the clutch and do hard launches.

You need the flywheel that matches your transmission. If you're using a w58, you need an N/A Fidanza Flyhweel.

its the same flywheel.

It most certainly is NOT. The clutch discs are the same, but the flywheels are completely different.
