I had a red n/a like that..........shudder...........NOT a cruiser lemme tell ya.........
Worn motor/trans mounts, slop in the drivetrain (u joints, rear end...) and a misadjusted/bad tps cause this drivability issue. It's a bitch to keep the tps perfect on the stock ecu especially S4 where it works well on/off throttle. A lighter rotating assembly will exacerbate the problem but it's not the cause.

thats not caused by the light flywheel.

12 is the lowest you can really get
RB weighs the flywheel and counterweight together to get 12
other companies with the 9.5 is just the flywheel without the counterweight
unless you go really light with the (forgot brand name) 7.5 flywheel

the lighter you go the fast its revs in lowend but a major loss to topend power. the lightest you can get is a 8.6lbs. but thats strictly light-to-light. go with a 11 - 12lb one. if you are gonna get one at all. but im not sure if you have to change your counterweight. i'll talk to my freind and find out.
