Just get it balanced and faced if it is scored badly and thats about all you need to do! (dont lighten it!)

i've heard a few dodgy stories about lightened standard flywheels although a pal has one on his rally car and it's been fine.
standard should be fine anyway.
cheers for the advice

I find that if you lighten them, you get more lag between gearchange as the engine revs drop quicker. With a turbo engine, the kick of the turbo soon spins the engine back up so you dont need to worry about lightening the flywheel!
