Here are some more information for Billet Steel Flywheel:
Die casting is a process in which molten metal is forced under high pressure into mold cavities. The metal hardens to get a desired shape. In recent times, plastic molded parts have replaced die-casting, as they are cheaper and lighter than die cast parts. Die-casting can be done using a cold chamber or hot chamber process.
About Die Casting Process
Die casting is a widespread non-expendable technique in which metal are forced into the mold cavity under high pressure. Die casting mold that are known as dies can be used repeatedly to produce castings in a variety of sizes, shapes and wall thickness. The mold cavities are designed with intricate designs that enables in producing complex shapes with accuracy, surface finish and attractiveness..
History of Die Casting
In the early days of die casting only low-pressure injection method was used, but today high-pressure casting techniques like squeeze casting and semi-solid die casting methods are use to cast more than 4500 pounds per square inch. Initially, only tin and lead were die caste, but now magnesium, copper and other alloys are also to cast using this highly popular process.
Die Casting Process
In this process molten metal or other materials are forced, under high pressure into the cavities of the steel mold. Dies are two part molds that are made of alloy tool steel - The fixer die half and the ejector die half. The die or mold is fabricated with the impression of the component that is to cast. There are four types of dies:
Single cavity to produce one component
Multiple cavity to produce a number of identical parts
Unit die to produce different parts at one time
Combinations die to produce several different parts for an assembly
The molten metal is injected into the die under high pressure and high speed, which helps in producing a casting that is smooth and precise as the original mold. The pressure is maintained on the mold until the hot metal solidifies. When the metal is hardened, the die is opened to remove the casting.
There are several variations on the basic process that can be used to produce castings for specific applications. These include:
Squeeze casting - A method by which molten alloy is cast without turbulence and gas entrapment at high pressure to yield high quality, dense, heat treatable components.
Semi-solid molding - A procedure where semi-solid metal billets are cast to provide dense, heat treatable castings with low porosity.
Alloys used
Aluminum, copper, lead, zinc and tin based alloys are predominantly used in die-casting.
Automation
In modern day, sophisticated die casting machines are used that ensures consistent quality control. Every machined die-casting differs in the method in which molten meal is poured into the die. Automations are used to lubricate dies, pour the metal into the chamber, etc. Two processes called the hot chamber and the cold chamber methods are used for die casting.
Applications
Die casting is most suitable for casting medium sized parts with complex details. Die-casting is the largest casting technique that is used to manufacture consumer, commercial and industrial products like automobiles, toys, parts of sink faucet, connector housing, gears, etc. Most die castings are done from non-ferrous metals like aluminum, magnesium, etc.
Advantages
Economical process that can be used for a wide range of complex application
Parts have longer service life, dimensional accuracy and close tolerance
Post machining can be totally eliminated
A process that can be fully automated
Mold can be use repeatedly.
Disadvantages
Casting weight must be between 30 grams.
Casting must be smaller than 600 mm (24 in)
High initial cost.
Limited to high-fluidity metals.

Lowering a vehicles weight as a low cost aftermarket modification
The most cost effective mod there is! Usually free. 100lbs lost = .1 off of the quarter miles (equivalent of 10hp) and adds 2% more fuel efficiency
Your vehicles weight plays an enormous role in how well your vehicle handles/brakes/goes. Obviously an engine that makes 200hp in a car that weighs 3000lbs will be slower than an engine that makes 150hp in a car that weighs 2000lbs. With all other things equal. Some weight reduction mods cost some coin and others are totally free except for your time. I'll start with the most beneficial:
Lightweight wheels: For off the line performance lightweight wheels are well worth the price. If your stock wheels are 22 lbs and you replace them with 12lbs, thats a total savings of 40 lbs! Rotating weight is the best area to shave pounds off of.
Lightweight flywheel: Your stock flywheel weight will vary from engine to engine, so do some research to see if the added cost is worth it, but if you're replacing the clutch it's not a bad idea to splurge. This mod will greatly increase the rate in which your engine revs. Getting you to the powerband much faster. Some people experience chatter with aluminum flywheels (fidanza, clutchmasters, spec), a billet steel (exedy) won't, but they weigh a little more.
Gutted interior: It really depends on what you use the car. Dates will not appreciate this mod! It involves taking all the interior trim out of the car. All passenger seats, carpet, door panels, seat belts that are never to be used, dashboard (most of the hardcore guys make carbon fiber sheets and install aftermarket gauges), cup holders, radio, shifter trim, etc. All together these items can range from 80-200 lbs of savings. Remember 100lbs= .1 second off of the 1/4 mile and 2% in mpg.
Spare tire: For a savings of 20+ lbs remove the spare tire and jack and replace with a can of tire gunk.
Air conditioning: Removing compressor,lines, evap tank can equal 30-50lbs
Carbon fiber: This is can be a purely style or racing mod. There are various carbon fiber car-body manufacturers, I've always been partial to VIS. They can cost alot for a quality piece but at the end of weight reduction it can give the added edge over the competition. Hoods usually save 30lbs, fenders =10-15, trunk/hatch =10-60 (hatches save more).
Lexan glass: Automotive glass is heavy, lexan glass is not. Primarily used for track only cars, replacing all glass with lexan can save 100-200lbs.
If you do everything you can to reduce the weight, it'll be easy to drop .3 off of your quarter mile and maybe even pick up an mpg or two.

What type of metal is a 2003 Hyundai Tiburon GT V6 Flywheel made out of? Cast Iron? Billeted Steel?
My uncle a mechanic also says that the flywheel usually never needs to be replaced when replacing a clutch if it is made out of cast iron because it is so hard to thin down.
Cast Iron.
Third time's a charm: It wasn't until Ronald Avelino found his current ride that his talent for drifting surfaced
Shy and quiet, 25-year-old Dededo resident Ronald Avelino loves drifting, but the auto sport didn't come easy at first. Just like everyone else who competes, he started from the bottom -- in large part because he couldn't find the right car.
