My favorite tech piece by Sarah, but if I remember correctly it was a lot less "power" in 1st. Something like 10 "WHP" in 1st down to almost nothing (1-2 "WHP") by the time you're in 4th.

Sure does make rev matching a pleasure.

You know I spent the last half and hour with my wife looking for that book, so that I would have an accurate number. Once we find it I will post it up.

I dunno if it's just me, but it doesn't feel like I have to rev match all that differently then before.

Alright found the book, in first gear the flywheel frees up 16.6 hp, 5.9hp in second, 1.7hp in 4th and 1hp in 5th.

Cool. Every little HP counts. =)


Fidanza Friction plates should be replaced everytime you change the clutch. They are cheap and you basically get a brand new flywheel when you replace it.
