Well then to answer your original Question, No...You do not NEED a new flywheel and clutch with N2O..The stock one will hold up for a while...But, if you are SC'ing first, then your Clutch will most likely be TOAST by the time you get to N2O..I speak from experience having had N2O and having a SC now..with a slightly slipping clutch..

When I turboed my prelude the tech told me that I shouldnt get a lightened flywheel because it wont be able to handle the power.

Thanks,
Chris.
YES YOU WILL NEED NEW CLUTCH if.............you make a couple hard runs back to back. Nissan did not design there clutch for an additional 100hp...........trust me I made (4) 1/4 mile runs hard back to back and on the 4th pass clutch heated up and slipped...........and that was only a 55 shot of nos..............granted I do drive my car fairly hard.
