Default What is the best Flywheel??

What is the best flywheel for the S2000. So far I know of two brands that make them, Spoon and Toda.

Now because they might weigh the same, does that mean they have they same effects on the car?

Is the weight the only thing that makes a flywheel successful, or does it also matter about the design?

Spoon, no doubt

That's my biased opinion of course.

It doesn't change your gear ratios does it? All the speed gained is just by a lighter rotating mass?

I just bought an s2000 and I'm trying to figure out some of the best engine upgrades. I eventually want to add a comptech s/c, but that's in the future. I was wondering if anyone knew what the best CAI, cat-back exhaust, headers, pulleys, pistons were? Any info you could give me would help. Also any good websites would be appreciated. Thanks!

My vote goes for TODA, as a consumer I don't sell Spoon or TODA, but checked out both and decided on TODA because I plan on going with the TODA cams when they come out.

I have over 1 year and 17,000 miles on the TODA flywheel and I'm very happy with it.
