This I've experienced.

This I haven't. If anything, I think the rpms take too long to drop due to the heavy flywheel, making upshifts jerky if done too quickly. It would be nice if SRM would force the rpms down though, as that would mitigate my desire to buy a noisy lightweight flywheel. I put a JWT flywheel in my 350. I loved what it did to the performance in terms of taking away some of the 'rpm-float' during upshifts, but I hated the rattling noise it made.
