    Rogue Engineering clutch kit and lightweight flywheel

    Anyone used the Rogue Engineering clutch kit with lightweight flywheel (10lb aluminum or 13 lb steel)? I'm going to upgrade the stock clutch and dual mass flywheel preventatively and really want a lightweight flywheel for performance reasons. Has anyone used this clutch kit and has input on how the overall experience and chatter? Thanks!

    Funny, I'm sure I'm in need of a flywheel and was thinking of doing something other than OEM. But I'm not using it for performance because it's my daily. 🤔🤔. Still interested in seeing the outcome or info though.

      Take a look at the one on Euroconnex before you decide. It's the one mod I've seen people struggle with the most and I've seen more people go back to the dual mass fly wheel because of drivability.

        I have a jb racing lightweight aluminium flyhweel. Rattles like a box of bolts (neutral, clutch out). If you daily your car and want to keep it quiet and reserved, stick with the oe dmf. Otherwise go with a lightweight smf. I love mine - motor revs like a bike engine!

          Definitely not a daily anymore. Just can't decide between the 10 lb aluminum or the 13 lb steel. I want as much performance as possible for the track but also to be enjoyable on the street, sometimes too light of a flywheel makes shifting more of a hassle just driving around. But at this point the stock clutch and dual mass are really holding back the performance and enjoyability vs how it should feel with a single mass and more direct clutch without the self adjusting component.

          I also have a sneaking suspicion that my clutch is going to die soon and has lived a very long life.

              Go the 10lb aluminium flywheel. Less unsprung mass makes a massive difference.

              Imho, the lightweight aluminium flywheel doesn't make shifting/rev-matching a hassle at all. Makes it more enjoyable in my books
