that is the one you want. the 8.8 one is great, but it's kinda a single use, as it is not recommended you service it as it's already shaved to maximum thinness. the street one is pretty good at 11 lbs, and it is serviceable. just make sure whatever brand you choose, that it has a steel starter ring. if it's all aluminum the starter will tear off the teeth and you will have starting issues.
9-11 lbs is good weight. if you are forced induction, you could go even lighter, but remember the more weight you shave off, the more torque you loose and it could cause issues wile decelerating....

No torque is lost with a lightweight flywheel what you lose is inertia of the flywheel/engine so the rpm's drop faster between shift which typically translates into not as smooth driving. Torque is a result of the leverage a piston has on the crankshaft (bore and stroke) a different weight of flywheel should not effect that
