 stiffer clutch.  That is of course unless the 190 is heavier than a 210 for

I just had this done.  I pick up my balanced/lightened flywheel last week.  I
have a original factory 190mm flywheel(why go bigger, i.e. more weight), F&S
sport pressure plate and F&S sport disk.  I've had this combination for 13
years and have had no problems.  In the last year I added nitrous and still no
problems.  The grinding/balancing shop came as a recommendation from my tranny
shop.  This guy has been doing cranks and flywheels for over 20 years.  He
took off 5 lbs. from my 190mm.  If I had pushed it, he may have taken off a
little more.  The flywheel is now a nice 10 lbs.(based on my fish scale).
I'll be working on putting it in during the next few weeks.  BTW, cost $75 and
a few days.  If anyone in the SF Bay Area wants to know where this shop is
email me.
