I'm in with the, lets get as close to 300 hp as I can for as little money as I can. Then learn to cope with it for the next few years group of thought.

Ideally my car would just magically get 300 hp by touching someones accessport to the EMU, I know this wont work... so I need to spend some money.

I'm definitely not going to buy a CF drive shaft though. And he started recommending I keep my old exhaust and put it on each time I need emissions. Where my thought was to make my car emissions compliant while still achieving my goal.

I thought a lighter flywheel would help throttle response, no added performance gain, but it would make it easier to quickly blip the throttle and rev match, and would take less time to rev down as well... and cause you to idle higher.

I think the CF driveshaft is just as strong if not stronger. However it would be substantially more brittle. So I guess the right (or wrong?) thing could cause it to shatter, where a drive shaft would bend? both are pretty terrible though. My worry with CF parts is accidents. If I get into one, how does the CF portions of my car affect it's safety? The car is built to crumple in a certain way, the CF wont crumple like that, thus not properly absorbing the impact.

So while I'd like to get the weight advantages of CF, I fear that in an accident it would work to my disadvantage.
