not unless your racing.

for the money, get a lighter flywheel, better bang for the buck and your actually feel it. You would be shocked how much lighter the stock RX8 rotors are over the old 13B's.

I held them both a Sevenstock, it was a major difference.

I wasn't sure if it was posted in the wrong forum area

RB's only found 0.2 lb on the Renesis engine rotors, at best this might matter for long term durability in a true racing application
