i couldn't tell you off the top of my head as i only fit the parts but the flywheel looks normal from the front but when you turn it over theres a plate bolted to the back which covers everything inside so i don't even know how they work totally but i know the face which bolts to the end of the crank can somehow move independently to the face the clutch bolts to. it's made like this to take out ****** coz the new friction plate has no springs it any more like old plates used to have but we have never had to have one back to replace it . they seem to have finally got it right. and they are now offering this as the fix for anyone who has a legacy that chirps from the old dual mass flywheel type

 

I've had this fitted to my MY00 about 2 weeks ago. It cured the judder but has left me with a problem when changing up at high revs. It feels like someone has just run into the back of me and makes the whole car shake.
Typically when I took the mechanic out in it it didn't do it!

Still trying to find the cause.

Mine used to do that, I found adjusting the biting piont of the pedal cured it.
