It's smaller, and lighter.
The clutch surface area is 215mm in diameter instead of 240mm, lightening the flywheel from 23 lbs to 11.68 lbs.
A strong, rebuildable twin disc.
The cerametallic discs and pressure plate are rated up to 730 lbs ft of torque with a hardened spline.
Machined forged carbon steel
By being denser than aluminum, carbon steel is machined to a tighter package.
Machined for OE functionalities.
The package is machined to fit the original slave cylinder, starter and pilot bearing.

Twinsies.
The 420G found in the E46 M3 and E39 M5 are finicky transmissions that are relatively intolerant to lightweight flywheels for street use.
They're loud, rattly, and are often coupled with a heavily sprung single clutch to compensate.
A twin disc should give us more power holding capacity, while dividing the required left foot strength between 2 discs.
In this Series, I document my experiences with various lightweight flywheels, including the GrandAm, OE+ and Clubsport Twin Disc package.
Enjoy,
- Matt
