26 fully sik kw.....
you get ZERO change in kw 
you reduce rotational inetia which will be more noticable in 1st and 2nd gear...
who told you you get more kw?? go and slap them...

wont notice to much difference with a lightend stock flywheel
if you get a nice 3.7kg TRD or toda item then you will definately notice the difference, but again only in like 1st and 2nd
hmmm its kinda like driving a fully sik hectic lancer with massive 19" chromies then taking them off and putting on the standard 13" steelies. Its quicker on the steelies as the rotational mass / inertia forces n shit lol i failed physics but u get what i'm sayin??
it wont let you make any mroe power but it will let u accelerate faster

well, you aren't making it clear for any of us.. your spelling is terrible.... fanx?
YOU WILL NOT MAKE ANY MORE TORQUE IN 1ST OR 2ND GEAR
that clear enough?
Hunty's analogy of the bigger rims is right on the money... it may reduce inertia such that in 1st gear you could reduce effective car weight by maybe 2-300kg...
maybe you should so a search on teh intahnert....

FWIW when I went from the 7kg stock flywheel to the alloy 3kg one on my AE-86 I also changed the gearbox to a close-ratio type. So the only gear that was the same as the stock wide ratio was 4th and I would have put money on there being no change in acceleration in that gear.
But I really noticed it having more poke.
So in my case it wasn't just the lower gears, it was all of them.
