The aluminum flywheel is a little quicker in 1st and 2nd if you have the tires to stick. It also responds to street surface variation for acceleration a bit better as the rotating mass is lighter. For 3rd and 4th there's basically no diffrence in acceleration.
The heavier flywheel will hit the next gear with that rotational energy harder to give a little push if you shift quick before revs drop. The transmission may not like the quick shifts as much with the heavier flywheel.
