That's very interesting. I've seen people use them on B5s and are rated highly. Very low price for what is effectively a very expensive way of making a flywheel. Sent them an email with a few questions, I'll probably buy one of it comes back OK.

You will experience some chatter with a SM Flywheel at low revs in too high a gear but you will alter your driving style to avoid it. TTV are quality products.

Exactly it is no biggy but worth mentioning to the OP.

Just a heads up - if you order directly with them and save them the ebay fees it knocks off another 20 quid :)
