So I was doing a little clutch/flywheel shopping today and I can't really determine if the flywheel is the same for the non-turbo and turbo models. I could look it up, but that's what you guys are for!

No there not the same. The non turbo takes a slightly smaller clutch set. So make sure to order one for a nonturbo and make sure its for the right model year. The rear counter weight is different between the 86-88 and 89-91 7's.

turbo models are larger and weigh more.. you will need the corresponding parts..

I figured as much, but most of the flywheels I was looking at weren't specific as to turbo or non-turbo.

Any recommendations on a flywheel? I heel/toe the **** out of my cars, so rev matching isn't a problem.
