Has anyone bought and used one of these? Are they worth the money?

I think Ph1 Tom has one on his PH1.

 

[Ph1 Tom]

They're good. Not sure I'd pay the ktec price though.

There's one in the for sale section for £150, I'd snap that up

Did you notice a massive difference in acceleration?

I'm very much the buy brand new type of guy lol

 

[Ph1 Tom]

Picks up a bit better, more responsive, better engine braking, gear changes feel better.

A bit of steel is a bit of steel, it looks fine. http://www.cliosport.net/forum/show...el-cup-shocks-driveshafts-exhaust-rear-lights

I've messaged him about some details. Would the car need remapping to gain full advantage?

 

[Ph1 Tom]

No, but it would be advisable to do a new clutch etc. Only worth doing if you need the box off.

lightened flywheel (propper onr) like the ktec or elite racing def make a difference make it more buzzy and better engine braking when i fitted mine not cheap but my old one had loads of heat cracks in it and a standard one was 6.5kg when lightened only got it to 5kg an elite racing one was 3kg's !!!

I run a cup racer flywheel which has an extra tooth taken out for magnetti Marelli ecu, would be ok to do this to a ktec lightened flywheel? I presume I would need to get it balanced again?

Ohh hello!

My car wasn't custom mapped when it was fitted. The ktec wheel is made by a company called TTV racing who do all sorts for hundred of cars. Should have said mate and I could have chucked in my clutch for you, it was only 20k old.

Id stay away from buying anything from K Tec if I were you, speak to 'pure motor sport'. Much cheaper and so much knowledgable!
