Default is a miata crank pulley dampend?

just wondering if this is true? my subaru wrx doesnt have a dampener so its ok to have a light weight pulley on it but how about for a miata?

All Miatas have dampeners. Why would you want a lightweight pulley anyway ? its a waste of money.

if im not mistaken the wrx boxer engine has a counter balance shaft to take the place of the dampener.
