Most of these cars are driven around in civilized areas and don't see 
top speed. It could be argued that the performance factor that gives 
a driver the most fun is better acceleration. If you buy that, then a 
lighter flywheel gives more bang for the buck than any other mod.

If you look at chassis dyno numbers before and after the normal mods 
for the first 20% power increase, and if you look at the real 
increase at speeds at which these cars are normally driven - namely, 
below 3500 rpm, you realize that the increase in car performance from 
our most popular mods increase the hp and torque a rather small 
amount at these rpms. A lighter flywheel, though, will be felt immediately.

Likewise, changing from a 3.7 diff to a 4.1 will be felt immediately.
