less rotating mass and a bump in oil pressure. its not there for balance of the engine but more so a "comfort" thing put in by honda. without it some ppl say the engine vibrates a little more but nothing that noticeable. i have engine mounts/traction bar coming in so that should help some. it seems like a lot of ppl just take their belt off but when they do that oil stops flowing through some ports and you can lose some oil pressure and thats not too good. the kit has plugs to plug those ports and bumps oil pressure back into a safe range
