Default Please help me choose a lightweight flywheel.

Hi guys, before my car goes in for the parts to be fitted and then a remap, I need a new clutch. Iv'e done some reading and iv'e decided that a lightweight flywheel is a good way to go whilst the clutch job is being done. The cars an 04 blob wrx uk and i'm not going for crazy power so just the stock exedy is going in for the clutch change, but I just want some advice on what to by flywheel wise?!?! Iv'e read too light can be problematic so around 7kg is about right, correct?.

So what would you guys recommend...
...For a daily driver, using a stock clutch on an 04 blob 5 speed uk wrx.
And I dont want it costing the earth if possible

Thanks in advance.

I've just had an RTS sports clutch and 13.4lb/6kg flywheel fitted to my Classic.

It's early days yet (fitted yesterday) but I'm pleased with the combination. The clutch pedal is noticeably lighter, haven't stalled the car yet, the car pulls away quicker and idle is fine.
