There are several good things about the ultra-lite flywheel but only one bad thing, IMO.
The bad thing is the price.
The good things are:
1) Increased TQ and HP (though not noticable by me). But obviously (at least it seems obvious to me) when reducing the rotating mass you gain wheel TQ and HP.
2) Improved throttle response. This was noticable on my car. Didn't turn it into a motorcycle though, like Vadim claimed it would (and which I sent him an email about his exaggerated claim...never heard back.)
3) I didn't notice any effects on the idle rpm and idle stability. So I consider that a good thing too, since I was told it would affect the idle.
