lightweight billet flywheel on xe
i know they generally make engine spin up faster and rev easier but whats the downside.
is it true they lose torque and pull uphill

there is no actual loss of torque, its loss of momentum but i doubt youd notice it, the ains of the engine reving up faster wold be more benificial, would result is less transmission losses

oh yeah i dont have clue m8 not tryin to state its special or out dude, yeh he said map (basically power run ent it but dude said they can tinkle with settings of map cos its an open map or somat)
yeh its just a chip but he called it groupn and then he stated we mainly do superchips hence making me think its not a superchip its same as but dif brand lol
im am really after piggyback but ill wait an see, flywheel is defo coming home to pappa though in next few weeks my crimbo box to myself lol, and battery in boot at same time soon.

no, sorry. few companies do their own styele ones, also you may not be able to move it to the next car ,there are different types of unichip.... the looms are different too, andthen it will need mapping again... i wouldnt buy one on that principle alone
