balancing question

How critical is it to have a rotating assembly dynamicly balanced? Especially for an boosted application.

Factory balance is usually fine. If you changed con rods or pistons then everything should be rebalanced.

I bought a new crank, con rods and pistons. The crank needed a lot of weight added to compensate for the lightweight rods and pistons.
