Looking to have a stock flywheel _lightened_, _balanced_ & _resurfaced_

Stock flywheel specs : single mass, steel, ~23lbs  
**Final weight goal of ~14-18lbs**

Does anyone have a recommendation as to a shop that performs this service?

hunts might be able to do it, but i know they couldnt do my flywheel because the pilot bearing hole was too small, they didnt have the tooling for it, not sure what you are working with though.

When several shops told me my stock Audi flywheel couldn’t be resurfaced, hunts did it. They also balanced my fidanza. As far as lightening I’m not sure, but they’d be the first place I’d try.
