how could it hurt? all it does is free up some rotational mass so your engine will turn faster, freeing up some hp and getting you into your powerband just that much quicker. You will have to be careful though, because it will drop the revs just as quickly as it'll gain them. Don't stall out.

Why would you think it hurts a motor? It is actually good for it in a sense.
