Whoa! That's crazy... I think I would've been even more pissed because they f'ed up the car and didn't even take anything.

Extremely interested to hear your thought on the new setup once you drive it. I really want to know how the new clutch engages as I pretty much HATE the stock clutch, it shudders and just generally does not grip like it should. I've never used a lightweight flywheel, but would be interested in knowing its effects. If the rpm's drop quicker I'd be happy, because honestly I have to weight to shift currently b/c of how slow the rpm's drop with the current flywheel. I'm a fast shifter and would love to be able to do that and have a smooth shift even for daily driving. Where is the shop located, where can we buy the parts? Can I trust any ole shop to install this type of setup?
