Default Best Clutch / Flywheel combo??

Ive been reading so much about clutches and flywheels in forums than ive ever read in my entire life (not really) and I cant really find a good answer. I want to buy a street clutch and lightweight flywheel but cant decide on which ones.. ppl say this is good and that is good but i really want to know what is the best one... anyone know some good combos out there for a N/A tc.

well ACT is good along with Clutchmasters but it really depends on your preference..whether you want the clutch to feel super stiff or similar to stock but a little stiffer.

I'd recommend a CC Stage 2 and a lightened flywheel of choice.

less weight = easier to spin up = RPMs raise faster and drop faster.

the only down side ive heard of with the lighter fly wheels is that you have to launch it at higher rpms... so i you normally take off at say 1500rpms with the lightweight flywheel you would have to take off at 2000k instead to prevent bogging down and drivetrain chatter. so im sure the 12lb flywheel is more daily driver friendly then the 9lb one

that's just an example though not sure how it really is in real life as i haven't installed mine yet.. im waiting on getting a stronger clutch first
