I am going back to stock and this DIY is gonna help me do another pulley install.
Serious LWCP kits are designed like this for balancing the overall weight reduction. You cannot install 1 or 2 pullies from the kit, since you are creating more weight imbalance in the system. If you want to use the harmonic balancing characteristic of the crankshaft pulley, better to not change anything else.

By the way, I was watching some weeks ago a nice video mentioning the Porsche factory lightweight flywheel and the absence in some models of the harmonic balancer.
