WARNING: This product can expose you to chemicals that are known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. For more information, visit www.P65warnings.ca.gov.Upgrading your manual transmission Volkswagen Golf R or GTI often reveals the limits of the heavy factory dual-mass flywheel, which slows engine response and limits high RPM acceleration. The ACT 601050 XACT Streetlite Flywheel addresses this drag with a lighter 16.3 pound forged chromoly design that noticeably improves engine response and acceleration. This one piece construction reduces failure points while providing uniform, efficient heat transfer across the entire clutch friction face, preventing warped inserts or loose ring gears.
