IMO, save your money, esp. for turbo. This is not a significant upgrade. Turbo needs some engine inertia for lowend boost; in my experience, lightening will make boost a bit peakier. Lighter 'wheel increases clutch wear, & you may have stalling issues at idle, when fans or AC runs. Flywheel also = a vibe dampener -- might get rougher engine NVH. Only "benefit" is quicker shifts/downshifts with matched revs. For race car, non-turbo, maybe go for it.
If you really want a lighter flywheel, have a machine shop take four pounds off your stock 'wheel and call it good. Shifting is fun if you double-clutch. Don't expect to blow anyone's doors off.
