The spare 2.8 flywheel I have and the flywheel that is fitted to my S3 are both 8Kg. I've heard that the 2.9 flywheel is circa 11Kg. Someone explained in a posting I made somewhere that the easiest way to make the type 9 box fit the 2.9 engine was to use the 2.8 flywheel. The 2.9 flywheel is thicker and a 2.8 standard clutch kit wouldn't work and the 2.9 and clutch wa designed around the MT75 box. I'm not sure how accurate that info is though.

hopefully not as it looks like I have a 2.8 flywheel and an MT75 box
