Lighter flywheel – more agile engine
The installation of a lighter flywheel is an effective and inexpensive tuning measure. Due to the lower flywheel mass, the engine needs less energy to accelerate and thus reaches a higher rpm faster. As a result, gear changes are quicker because the engine speed can increase more rapidly. Since the mass of the engine is reduced by a lighter flywheel, fuel consumption can decrease - because the engine has to provide less drag power. Be sure to fine balance the flywheel. However, you should not lighten the flywheel too much so that idling remains stable.
