question for you guys, maybe you can help me understand this. why in the world would you take out balance shafts in a motor? i know what they do and i know they have some weight to them, but what are you gaining? why would you want to unbalance an engine? it sound like you want to destroy it or cut its lifespan in half. also, i assume you wouldnt be able to rev this thing high if removed. Ok you get 8 horses to the wheels. is it worth the trouble and the expense for the engine? i would find somewhere else to make my 8 horses. please someone explain this to me. maybe the new Nissans do something differently?
