Its not a balancer. The d-series are internally balanced. It is to lessen the harmonic "pulses" that resonate and grow into destructive forces. This is why I referred to it as a dampener. I don't claim to know what rpm range that will affect your engine, or how long it would take.
Its not that heavy. Maybe a 3lbs (max) difference. You can try to find a OEM one from a non-ps/ac car (or throw it in a lathe). But, the effort at that point is so small, you should spend it elsewhere.
Just as I mod the Honda more, the more I realize Honda did it right from the start. Any gains are small, and from narrowing the vehicle purpose further with more expensive materials.
