Balance shaft removal

I'm considering removing the balance shafts in my k20z3 engine on my atom 3 .I previously had a atom 220 with the jdm k20 engine without these power robbing shafts built into the oil pump and although it had a bit of vibration at 3000 rpm i cant remember it being annoying even with the rubbish engine mounts on the atom 2 .You just swap the oil pump for the fd2 pump and plug of the oil feed .Also I would add the clockwise motion sump baffle .Has anyone had any experience of this mod on the k20z3?

I have the oil pump mod and the Clockwise Sump fitted to my 2.2 K20Z4 (built by Clockwise)

Never noticed any excessive vibration but engine crank / flywheel and clutch was all balanced when built.
