Granted, that was on a turbo setup making 700whp, so any issue gets magnified. On a NA car I wouldn't expect any issues since the margin for error is much higher.

Honestly, if you want to lose rotating mass get a flywheel first.

I understand. My Z isn't a track car so I'm not hugely invested in losing every oz I can from everywhere I can shave it, but at the end of the day more HP is more HP.
