Default JWT Flywheel and ACT clutch

Thinking of buying a JWT Flywheel and ACT clutch.

Got a question, if i get them will my clutch engagement point change?

I really want a new clutch because I dont like the stock one because the clutch is too high and i tried to lower it but it always goes back up again. Will getting the JWT Flywheel and ACt clutch make it go lower? What else will it change? Thanks.

Maybe ... I like JWT but ACT makes a fine FW----Best to stick with an engineered assy.

I have the ACT HDSS Clutch and the ACT Pro Lite Flywheel, the engagement point is not that much different than stock.

Have you heard or driven any other light flywheel? Can you compare the noise level?

its not that it is obnoxious or anything, but when compared to other lightweight flywheels, it is among the louder ones (the rattle at 2000-2500 rpm). Other flywheels seem to quiet the noise better, some being heavier, some being lighter

Well ---the JWT is 50% lighter and the ACT is 16.9 and 13.2 Lbs. I quess I just adapt to changes and except that a mod of any kind is, as a rule going to have an effect. Your shift points have to change and it becomes the norm after a day. Those that obsess over noises are plaqued by them.
