Aluminum flywheel is the best thing about my car! Makes it feel way faster and sound way meaner than it really is. The whole car just gets more visceral in the lower gears.
I start off in 2nd gear (1.98*3.73 = 7.39) all the time no issues, just a little more finesse is needed I suppose.
Another benefit...in a (God forbid) kaboom in a bellhousing, a 15lb aluminum flywheel is much safer than a 30+ lb steel one.
