There's no benefit unless you are supercharged. With supercharged cars, having more ribs helps with grip so you don't have slip. On a naturally aspirated car it only adds aesthetic value. They do make a nice product though, I just added their 10% overdriven 8 rib harmonic damper on a supercharged Trailblazer SS in the shop.

And just a FYI, if you are supercharged and order this damper you need to order their crank pinning kit to go with it (doesn't specify on the website but you need it). Just a heads up so you don't lose another day like I did!

I agree with this.
