some people report a little chatter on idle, put the ECS kit on mine with the lighter flywheel, got a bit more noise, but some of that is probably because of the uprated engine and dogbone mounts, has got quieter over time,

What do you think about the ECS kit, my clutch is on it's last legs and I've been looking at these. I'm thinking of the 14lbs lightened version.

I like it, lighter than standard, I have the 14lb version, very small amount of chatter on idle after fitting but barely noticeable now.

Have you noticed using noticeably more fuel? What's it like at keeping speed too?

Not noticed any difference on fuel unless i've got my lead lined trainers on :grin:
Drives exactly the same, just with a lighter clutch
