My main idea on the post was only showing that the price was not as comparable as was posted.
The setup which I am running is VERY touchy. With the engagement being either on or off with little inbetween. This new setup you are going with seems that it will allow for an easier everyday driver.
Mine is not a daily driver so my only worries are like ones I had yesterday. When doing the Texas Inspection the guy stalled no less than three times trying to make sure the cars brakes were ok. He only travelled in a small circle in the parking lot.
Hope this setup works well.

But the Texas Inspection is pretty much an idiot check. Thought the idea was stupid since I arrived to Texas two years ago but it does help some of the drivers out there.
The inspection consists of checking your headlights, taillights, blinkers, brakes, tire wear. They look for leaks and make sure nothing under your car looks out of place or broken. They make sure all those items mentioned are in working order, nothing in real detail. But, something I do myself every few months.

Sky, have you driven the car with this setup yet? I don't know anything about the whole push pull switch, but such a light clutch and flywheel make me wonder if the car will be really hard to drive from a stop without launching. Seems to me like it would be really easy to stall and/or really easy to give it too much gas.
I've got the Clutchmasters Stage 4 and Toda Flywheel and if I am not paying attention it is easy to give it too much or not enough gas.
