They look very similar to the SH Engineering ones to me.

would you use on a turbo set or more for a n/a set up being that it is light

Hmm i was about to ask the same thing, seeing as a N/A setup produces high rpm and low torque, where a turbo produces torque but lower rpm, and seeing a lightweight flywheel takes away some torque storage, this wouldn't be such a problem on a turbo engine, as the turbo would make up for some lost torque, it will affect some drivability though.

Don't know if you understand what i'm saying *tongue*

Any thoughts?

Plenty people using ultralights on their turbo engines on here.

I would beware of that!! they look very shiny which is a bad sign here. Do you remember the Swiftune flywheels that failed? they where made in EN24 and was a copy to the SH design flywheel. Swiftune could not get them to last and added material close to the center. SH have never had one fail due to a couple of small processes afterwards. one of them which make the flywheel get a dull finish (I guess you know the process then...)

If the tuftriding isnt deep enough especially where the clutch plate comes into contact it could wear.
I just had some prototype flexplates made from EN24T and Tuftrided and they are performing very well.
I guess the proof is in the pudding.

SH also shot peens his flywheels around all the stressed areas. Obviously not done on the one pictures at least. I know Swifty did not do this, at least not on the flywheels I saw pictured.

Hmm, how much does shot peening cost? surely you could do this with these too?

Dont get all hung up on the wear issues, there wont be any,

the flywheel will have fretted and weleded itself to the crank well before the friction faces wear out,

these spindly spokes really must flex like a muscle beach faggot , i'd love to put a strobe on one of these flywheels at high revs, i'm sure i wouldn't see any deflection but it would look like i'm clever,

I saw these, spoke to Carl over a cuppa and gave my money to minis ares, it then went to Carl for balancing, it was very close too..

I run a supercharger and I don't care the TB is on the wrong side.
