according to this site http://www.performancecenter.com/products/...ATIONS&sf5=2.2L

this two flywheels both add 10to30 hp to the wheels! that seems like a heck of a lot. must be like 25 to 65 bhp. thats seems like alot, almost too much. Does this seem credible to you? if it true i'm sure it would add alot more kick to your celica.

Flywheels are heavy from the factory for a reason; replacing them with a lighter one almost always causes smooth idling to suffer (esp if the cam timing is the same). Why? Because the job of the flywheel is to smooth out firing pulses, vibration harmonics, and torsion twist. The most cost effective way, from a manufactuing stand point, is weight. Remove weight, remove the benefits. It's a give or take situation.
