If you want the clutch to hold more torque and still feel pleasant to drive then one of these:

Doug,

Can you do RS4 flywheel lightening and balancing?

I think that it doesn't make sense to try lightening the dual mass flywheel. I have tried it :) It weighs 12 kg, and there isn't so much to remove without taking a little from every part. Which means that you have to open it. And the balancing is also more difficult.

I have documented my flywheel "surgery" here: http://www.valitalo.org/rs4_flywheel_machining.htm

(i didn't take that in to use)
