This question might be better answered in the Prelude forum, but a lot of fellow H22er's are here. So here's the question. Can you get away with removing the balancer belt and daily drive? And if so, is there really any benifit? I know the shaft and belt are essentially taking power to operate, but is it a worth while gain? I know it's there for a reason, but just asking.

 

Search in the prelude section and Check out the prelude Faq SatanSRV did a dyno with and without the belt ,like 3hp.

 

you can remove the whole balncer shafts and plug the oiling holes and it increases oil pressure everywhere else, along with the horsepower gain, i run no belt, and dont feel any more vibration then stock

 

cut the belt. It's all good

 

word that works
