They look very different. And you will have to adjust the pedal for it to work. I have both the 1.6 and the 1.8 lightened flywheels. The 1.6 was about 5.9 kg's and the 1.8 was about 7.2kg's and with the bigger diameter it feels a lot heavier when driving than the 1.6. But i prefer it with the turbo on. Keeps you in your seat in 3rd to 4th gearchages.
