KEP Subaru/901 adapter kit removal, KEP Flywheel VS stock 02 WRX Options

[ruby914]

I am going to replace the 901 with a Suby trans soon and was wondering about the flywheel weight. I called KEP and they didn't know how much theirs weighed, or the weight of the stock flywheel. They use the, that looks good method. This car is a DD so don't want to pull it out just yet.
Their kit works good. I don't know the difference to anything else so maybe it is heavy?
I have always felt the WRX revs up slow, off the bottom, compared to my stock 2.0 FI type 4.
Does anyone know the weight of the KEP flywheel compared to the stock 02 WRX? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) TIA

A little (IMG:style_emoticons/default/icon_bump.gif) for the guys driving with a Suby motor and trany.

My WRX with the 901 and the KEP kit feels OK. I feel the FW maybe a little heavier than I need even for street use and that is what it will be used for.
Now that I am changing to the Suby trans, I purchased and received a new 14# FW and separately received an Excedy clutch kit.
Well, the clutch came in with only 4 springs, not the 8, I was hopping for.
I have heard problems with the Excedy replacement WRX clutches, shutter and squeal. From what I can tell they make the, OEM for Subaru one way, the OEM replacement a different way.
I have called them for more info but I was sent to the inbox, with no return call.
I found someone else selling a new Excedy clutch that told me it had 6 springs???

Now that I think of it, even with the KEP set up I can feel some shutter (at times). This is what was prompting me to incorporate the pitch stop with the Suby trans.

I understand the STI is 2 - 3# less than the WRX ( 19# VS 22#) and no shutter problems. Getting it to fit a WRX is a bit of a task. There are mixed reviews on getting it to fit.

I would have to send back everything I have but I am still thinking of doing just that... If I still have time.

Thinking with a car that is #1000 less than a WRX, I can trim some # of the stock WRX FW. I know, I may be nitpicking but shooting for the best fit. The 14# I have now, may be on the low but manageable side.
Thinking out loud, Less weight on a STI FW may be equal to a smaller OD WRX FW?

So, for the guys that are driving their Suby transed conversions.
I would like to know what FW and clutch they are using, if you feel the shutter and how you feel about it for street use.
Any thoughts welcome
TIA
