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.
It is heavier by about 1lb, but it's rotating inertia weight due to the floating internal design makes it 3.8lbs.

I guess the better question is, looking at the data I've provided, is controlling the 3rd order vibration, and the net gain of the Fluidampr in that region, more beneficial than just the slight increase in vibration in the 6th order regions?

It's easy to look at a graph and make assumptions, and in reality these number may all still be very reasonable for long-term engine health. I'm just wondering which one is best recommended for road racing.....ask 3 vendors and you'll get 3 different answers. lol
