Ok so second gear syncro decided to eat it on my cobalt ls (2.2). So I priced out how much it was to fix it and how much it was for one out of a junkyard. Well it was cheaper to just swap out transmissions. So I have the transmission out as we speak just did it tonite. What a time consuming deal. I had to take the frame off and everything haha. But I checked out my clutch and flywheel in the process of this realized it was about time for a clutch so I'm getting an Exedy Stage 2 clutch. Well my flywheel needs replaced to. I dont believe in shaving. So my question is what is the difference between the steel and lightweight flywheels? I hear 2 sides to the story between the two. What would be better for a street driving sometimes going from light to light with people and every now and again going up to the track. It's not heavily modded but if I'm replacing it I rather get performance out of it. Should I go with a lightweight flywheel or a stock weight flywheel? Note I'm not worried about any drivability issues. More about the performance anyhow. Any help would be appreciated on this.
