Anything is balanced if your tolerance of acceptance is wide enough. These engines are dynamically balanced very poorly from the factory; they just installed a 37 pound dual mass flywheel to smooth it out. The accountants said it was cheaper that way.

Study dynamic balancing and understand it before you can truly see how and why it is important to any engine.

Dynamic balancing and harmonics associated with a lack of it can even effect your ignition timing at upper RPM ranges with the M96 engine. Sounds crazy.
