Lightened Flywheel, difference in performance

As per title, I fitted the Xtreme HR kit to my car, the flywheel is approximately half the weight of the OEM dual mass. The car revs up and down much more freely.

 

I understand there will be less inertia on the crank now due to the lightened flywheel but does this actually make the car quicker in anyway shape or form ?

I think a lighter flywheel will never show changes in hps or torque... but it will make a lot of difference as far as revving speed of the engine! With a lighter flywheel it will pick up revs much better... but it will also lose revs quicker! Meaning you will lose some inertia... but for aggressive or track driving it is only a benefit!
