Is not a good idea to shave the stock flywheel. The flywhel is part of the balancing of the e-shaft. When you get a lighter flywheel it comes with a balancer weight that come in the automatic motors.

Sorry my fault I wasn't specific enough. I have a brand new flywheel coming in the mail this week from www.dasio.com I wanted to lighten the flywheel for better performance. I know others who have done it on different cars and they were rebalanced during the process. I was curious if anyone had done this or knows how much can be shaved off for weight savings?
Thanks
Thanks

Try that, http://www.diasio.com/
Was just a thought someone mentioned 75.00 to have the work done. But that's just word of mouth who knows if it was just bs.

ah, you got a new one for a reduced price
I doubt anyone will do it in the US for that price, these guys charge $180 but are located in Birmingham, AL. I suppose it comes down to how much they can remove, $75 would hardly cover the setup labor
