if its a cerermetalic (not sure on spelling)like my ap racing one then yes you should fit a steel flywheel as there to hard on normal cast flywheels,and as above a light weight one is a very good up grade at the same time imo

Bad information. The answer will depend on the friction material used on the paddle clutch.

Cerametallic paddle clutches should be fitted with uprated forged flywheels.

Is also a nice upgrade anyhow.
