FS: NIB RPS Flywheel (2zzge)

**CJandMJsMatrix** · 09-27-2005, 04:57 PM

RPS guarantees that all of the segmented wear surfaces are fully replaceable for the life of your car. CYN-R-G Segmented flywheels utilize our patented (6,793,057) "segmented" heat shield system.
Traditional heat shields warp because of the uneven heat produced by a slipping clutch. Just like a car going around in a circle, the outside tires go faster than the inside tires, the clutch disc slides faster around the outside of the flywheel than it does around the inside. The faster moving outside surface gets hotter than the inside surface. Because metal expands more the hotter it gets, the outside of the heat shield expands more than the inside. Traditional heat shields are made of one piece metal rings, so when the outside expands more than the inside, the only thing the shield can do is warp.
The CYN-R-G Segmented heat shields are not connected so they can expand and contract without warping. A warped heat shield causes the clutch to slip, which causes more heat and more warpage.
Our flywheels are typically 10 to 15 lbs. lighter than the factory units which allows up to 20 more HP to get to the wheels!!

Part #: BF-225492
Description: The last flywheel you will ever have to buy. The patented segmented heat shield design will not warp like other common one piece heat shields. All our
CYN-R-G flywheels are highly engineered with these benefits like dynamically balanced, crushed Heli coil inserts, stepped dowel pins, and over-sized lock-down bolts that are welded to the ring gear for positive retention.
Weight: 9.5 lbs

asking price: $450 + shipping OBO
payment: MO, cashier's check, personal check (will have to clear first before sending item), paypal will split 3% fee so add 1.5% fee to total cost after shipping.

nice peice but it's weird science...

i question if it's truly capable of the claimed 20 hp and i think taht the expantion and contraction would only be an issue if the peice it'sself was more than one peice... hmm...

i need to read more about these

yea i agree. it doesnt "add" hp, but it frees hp existing hp lost to the drivetrain. and that big claim for up to 20hp will probably apply to high-output turbo applications lol.
