With this in mind Fidanza is in the process of releasing a range of lightweight flywheels for 1999 to 2005 Volkswagens that deliver the following benefits:
\n\u2022 Faster throttle response and quicker acceleration
\n\u2022 Additional horsepower to the wheels (reduced parasitic losses)
\n\u2022 Smoother, faster shifting
\n\u2022 Easier braking, better slowing (due to reduced rotational mass)
\n\u2022 Reduced clutch wear and improved efficiency (from better heat dissipation)
\n\u2022 Cost savings and longevity (thanks to Fidanza\u2019s replaceable green friction plate – no need to replace
\nthe entire flywheel when worn)
\n\u2022 Potential for increased fuel economy (if you can keep your foot off the gas!)
\n\u2022 Quality and reliability (made in the USA from top grade materials)<\/p>\n
