Dual Mass Flywheel > Conventional Flywheel for a Racing Application?
(OP)
Hi there,
I'm considering Audi's 90-degree V6 for an upcoming competition car. The engine is equipped with a dual-mass flywheel in stock form. Though the aftermarket offers no lightweight and/or conventional alternatives for this motor (and indeed don't seem to support this motor much if at all), I'd be interested in investigating a custom solution.
My question is whether vibrations from the 90-degree six would be significant enough with a lightweight flywheel to compromise driveline reliability? The engine is likely to be solidly mounted, driving a rear-mounted transaxle via a torque tube. Thanks.
Thanks.

If you don't have that kind of budget, it probably does.
