Default Lightened Flywheel

My clutch has started slipping and i was wondering weither to get a light weight flywheel or go for a stock one.

i was always gunna go for a light one but after speaking to a friend who said that a light one kept causing his car to stall im now torn.

ive got a 1999 uk turbo running bout 250bhp but aiming for 300bhp.

oh and does anybody have a f1 racing stage 3 clutch on their car and is it any good?

cheers.

+1 noise doesn't really bother me, 6.3kg no stalling does aide progression over stock.

4.7kg here - need to be fractionally more careful than normal to avoid stalling but soon becomes second nature
