Aluminum Flywheel Question

I posted this over at the morgue but it seems that there is no definite answer to whether or not these things are effective. I have read people say there is a noticeable difference, other people say there is no difference, and finally other people don't recommend them and believe they are detrimental. I even read a post stating Macedo himself does not recommend them for drag racing (don't hold me to this, just a post from someone).

I also asked my Viper tech about them and he gave me some vague answer. Perhaps a question more tailored to my specific needs will be able to get me a clear answer.

First off, I am having some mods done to my car:

Corsa Track Exhaust
Belanger Headers
Randomtech Ceramic High Flow Cats
3.55 Gears
Smooth Tubes and Filters

I pretty much want increased sound as well as more bottom end torque. I absolutely love bottom end torque. This is why I am going the 3.55 gears as well as the exhaust.

Now will an Aluminum Flywheel help increase bottom end performance and response?

With work and all I just don't have the time to track the car. I pretty much like to cruise around and occasionally drag at stop lights. If there is any racing I would be doing, it would be drag racing. So my question is, in my case, will it be beneficial to install the Aluminum Flywheel?

Thanks in advance! :thumb:
