This is great, lots of things I was planning confirmed. Also really glad you mentioned the lightweight flywheel, especially with what you said about heel toe. One of my pet peeves when rev-matching is how slow it feels to heel toe.

One thing to keep in mind with a lightweight flywheel is you're losing that rotational mass and can negatively affect your gas mileage. The extra mass with a stock flywheel helps keep the engine rotating while at highway speeds so the engine doesn't need to work as hard to fight against air resistance.

Lighter flywheel won’t affect gas mileage in any noticeable way, and the logic would be the opposite. The only thing it will affect is taking off from the lights how it could be easier to stall. In regards to gas mileage, it would help improve it due to the lower rotational mass.

@@AngusOutram A lighter flywheel will make it easier to take off from a light, yes, but a heavier (stock) flywheel will, in fact, get you better gas mileage overall while at cruising speeds, like on the highway or cruising at the speed limit. The greater rotational inertia will stabilize RPMs (dampen, in a sense) when cruising and minimize the throttle adjustment needed to keep a stable speed. Like a spinning top. The more mass the top has, the longer it can keep spinning. Assuming equal conditions like size (same car), friction between the contact surfaces (tires), coefficient of drag, etc. In the city, a lightened flywheel may get you better MPGs during stop and go conditions, but it will certainly drop your MPGs on the highway. Anything in motion will stay in motion unless acted upon by an external force. Air resistance will slow the car down quicker because there is less rotational mass acting against the coefficient of drag, therefore more throttle input would be needed more often, thus more gas, to maintain the same velocity. If you were only doing stop and go driving, like in a big city commute, then yeah you would probably notice better MPGs. But, manufacturers engineer their vehicles with heavier flywheels for a reason. They put heavier flywheels (and torque converters for that matter) on from the factory to gain the extra highway gas mileage ratings. It depends on where you're driving, but most vehicles spend more of their time at cruising speeds, which is where the more massive (higher inertia) flywheels make the difference. My point is that a lower rotational mass only helps in certain conditions, but not most of the time. There are multiple factors to consider. Now, with that entire novel said, it does nothing to take into account the fun factor of a lightened flywheel. With the fun factor taken into account, I'm all about a lightened flywheel :). So, I do agree with you that it's a worthwhile mod.

@@mrvector257 Valid, but the effect of lesser inertia vs greater inertia during steady state RPM may well come to a 1 for 1 cancellation of perceived practical advantages/disadvantages. The engine’s reciprocating parts are always accelerating/decelerating, and a reduced inertia might aid in the combustion phase while equally increasing pumping loss and carrying less energy to overcome vehicle friction in the compression phase (likewise, the vehicle’s forward inertia can itself accelerate the drivetrain more easily with less rotational inertia). Fluid harmonic dampers theoretically address most of the issues that arise from that reduced rotational inertia, e.g., lighter flywheels and built engines with lighter components, without the added weight and inertia.

you make the point of the higher mass keeps it spinning, but forgot to mention the extra energy required to spin a 18kg flywheel vs a 4KG particularly where that mass sits which is even more critical (radius of gyration) so I can assure you it does not use more gas miles at constant velocity bar it's an aerodynamic profile which does but so small not measurable, people talk about the benefits being faster reving engine, and yes it is and sounds great done a few on different cars, have not seen a comment on the main benefit and that is 1st and 2nd gear acceleration. if the overall gear ratio of the car is 19:1 in first, then the car weight, at, say, 1400KG, only weighs 73kg to the engine (hence why first is quicker than 5th in acceleration. If the rotational mass of the engine is 50kg then the engine is having to move 123kg. 2nd is probably 10 to 1 so 140kg + 50kg (numbers all example not 86 ones) so in first if you take 12KG out the flywheel (but more importantly from the outer edges you reduce the mass needing accelerating to 111kg it makes 1st gear 10% quicker! that is the real benefit of a lightened flywheel! The difference in first gear can be astounding in some cars in 0-60 improvements.

@@AngusOutram do it bro! I just subscribed I have a nice build going on my 2013 automatic BRZ and I can’t decide if I should turbo or supercharge. I have a lot of money already in the car price isn’t much of an issue, but your videos have helped my find out what I really need before hand based off someone who already did what I’m looking to do. - thinking of throwing a Greddy turbo kit on with the Greddy super street titan exhaust I already have on the car would just have to remove my InJen intake sadly. Already have suspension done with Cusco and also a Greddy body kit just don’t know if I should turbo or not. Let me know what your honest opinion is and any tips or stuff you can tell me, you don’t know how much it would mean to me 🙏 thanks again for the reply

Thanks for subbing! Oh man there's so much to learn before turbo'ing! it's definitely been a journey (2x blown engines) but I love the car and the high compression engine with the turbo is insane to drive. The greddy kit is awesome, If I was in the states I would have most likely gone with the JDL kit as it allows for upgrading the turbo if you plan to go built motor in the future. Both are good though. As for if you should turbo it; In my opinion It really depends on the support where you live. If I didn't have E85 easily available I might have not have turbo'd it (lower quality fuel means you can't turn up the boost as much because the engine is fairly high compression from factory) If you have any other questions you can always message me on my instagram @angusoutram. Always happy to help!

Thanks Max! I would definitely recommend staying N/A or if you really need the extra power going for a centrifugal supercharger, these engine's hate high torque situations (boost low down + clutch kicks I would think would accentuate the issue). Some people seem to get super lucky with turbo'ing the stock motor but it wouldn't be my personal recommendation unless you had money to put down on replacement engines or a built motor if anything happened. I'll check out your channel!

I've got my 2018 BRZ TS arriving in a few days, ordered a Perrin CAI, tossing up between HKS and JDL catted headers to stay legal next, and have the rest of the exhaust planned out, thinking maybe an openflash tablet too. I want to get rid of that torque dip and get the rumble back, it's going to be strange coming from a WRX.

Question...so I got the aluminum HKS Intake with the Sound Generator outlet. Since then, I have put on a new cat back exhaust, which is plenty loud, and I no longer want the sound generator. How can I safely plug that outlet and clamp it shut, since it's not plastic anymore but metal? If that makes sense...lol I don't want to have to buy a whole new intake just to remove that thing.
