I just bought a new flywheel for a fresh engine from automotive plus. Nice and light, and looks really well made. I had it balance last week with my old clutch, which is a cushioned button clutch from Direct Clutch Services in Albion Brisbane. The flywheel was close to bang on, and after 2 years of track days and a little racing (average 1 event a month), they said the clutch is about 30% worn. They recommend the same clutch for turbo applications.
It's not the best for driving around on the street, but you get used to it.
Cheers,
