I must clarify some things (and take some blame) (long)

First, the flywheel for '90-'93 900 turbos is no larger or heavier than that in an earlier 900 turbo. The only difference is in the spacing for the pressure plate locating dowels. I know Mike is excited about getting rid of his clutch slip at mega boost in high gear, so disregard all that about more lag, harder to spool up, etc.
The reason for that problem was this: Before the autocross, Mike complained of poor off-boost performance. I had previously swapped the KC-Brad-modified distributor diaphragm onto another SPG for testing purposes, and then reinstalled it on Mike's SPG. Apparently, I did not hook the advance/retard rod properly, eliminating the timing advance portion of the program. Anyway, at the autocross I made certain it was installed correctly, and what do you know, problem solved. My bad.
Just wanted to get the facts straight on the clutch stuff, etc...
