The factory BMW S55 dual-mass flywheel is engineered with comfort in mind, catering to the luxury-oriented expectations of the brand’s driving experience. Its design focuses on dampening drivetrain vibrations, smoothing out gear transitions, and minimizing harshness during operation. However, this refinement costs valuable performance. The dual-mass flywheel adds a substantial 26.5 lbs of rotational mass to the drivetrain, which significantly hinders throttle response and makes rev-matching feel sluggish and disconnected. Moreover, dual-mass flywheels are notorious for being a weak link in modified or high-performance builds and can prove costly to replace when they inevitably fail.
Our Single-Mass Lightweight Flywheel Conversion addresses all of these shortcomings with a purpose-built, lightweight, single-mass design that prioritizes performance. Weighing in at only 18.5 lbs., this design significantly reduces rotational mass, allowing your S55 to achieve its true motorsport potential!
Features & Benefits:
Precision machined from 4140 HT heat-treated chromoly steel for exceptional toughness, even wear properties, and increased durability. Material quality promotes even wear across the entire friction surface, prolonging component lifespan. Heat treated to HRC 28-32, tempered to relieve stress and improve dimensional stability. Hardness improves component wear characteristics. Black oxide coated for corrosion resistance on non-friction surfaces. Precision balanced to exceed OEM specification (G16 spec to 175g-mm). SFI 1.1 certified to ensure safe operation under extreme operating conditions. Specifically designed to work with S55 OE-architecture clutches. Optimized step height maximizes clutch clamp load and offers a prolonged service life. Performance:
10 lbs. lighter than the factory BMW flywheel! OEM Dual-Mass: 26.5 lbs. Turner Motorsport Single-Mass: 18.5 lbs. Faster revs Improved throttle response and acceleration Allows for a more engaging driving experience and delivers a feeling of direct connection
