I agree with you that if there ever is damage it would be almost impossible to tell where it came from. That is my problem with the advertising scheme of fluidampr. They throw up a wall of data without ever stating they have proven any of it has ever caused any actual damage.
If they have tested and found actual damage done to a car because of vibration, they haven't given any proof of that. Meanwhile Subaru states their boxer engines are internally balanced and need no actual harmonic damper.

Is the fluidampr not heavier than the stock pulley?
Perhaps @
CSG Mike can chime in on the fluidampr in a race/sustained high rpm environment, afaik he's had it on his car for awhile now.
