    all the do is decrease vibrations from the engine at idle to make them feel smoother. it has absolutly nothing to do with the performance of the engine

    Right. If your rotating assembly is properly balanced before assembly, it really shouldn't be too harsh of a vibration anyway.

    I'm not too familiar with Honda balance shafts, but the eliminator kit looks like it's necessary if you want to remove the shaft, unlike a 3.8/4.2 Ford where you can just remove it and the cog that turns it via the cam.

    If the balance shaft was added as an afterthought (like the Ford motor), it's a safe bet that you can remove it somehow without adding additional hardware.

    If you want to same some weight (I assume), go for it.
    Absinthe makes the farts go Honda.
