   hi all just a quick one really , i got my 1.3 rallye box going on soon ,i understanf these are excellent boxes with the shorter ratios. i dont know wether to buy a lightened and balance flywheel whilst the box is off . would this be a good idea pairing it up with the rallye box?

   Logically it makes sense to get things like changes to the flywheel and clutch while the box is off.
   
   Saves you taking it off again at a later date.
   
   Would you get your flywheel L&B or buy one off the shelf. I cant tell a huge amout of difference with lightened standard one.

   I was thinkin right, are westcoast flywheels smaller? couse they use a 180mm clutch. so therefore lighter and easier to get going, so you could get a lightended n balnced 1.4 westcoast flywheel which would be a lot lighter, then get a fast road 1.4 180mm clutch to take up the extra umpth and it should be quicker and abit of difference over the 200mm VT flywheel etc

   If its machined by somebody who knows what they are doing then there wont be an issue mate..

   Get a Lightened flywheel + Lighter crank pulley aswell, but i think it will reduce your torque?

    rsllye boxes use the same ratios as any other sports box..
    
    they just have a different final drive.

    I dont think the lightness has anything to do with torque figures. Mine just rev's a hell of a lot quicker with the lightweight flywheel (2.8-3kgs)
    
    With a S1 rallye box on there it'll zip through the gears
