Yeah I think in a few years it'll be a shelf item. There will be a ton of people racing these cars.

Out of curiosity, what's the benefit of this over stock? Are we saving weight while maintaining damping ability?

I designed it and sent the cam file to a machine shop with the tooling to make it so it cost me a lot of time and material, but if I made another one it would be a lot more than the $700 ati wants.

It's a legit harmonic balancer. Prevents the engine from rattling apart from resonance at high rpm. Not sure if its really needed but the only way to find out is more expensive than just buying one of these.
