IS AN ALUMINUM DRIVESHAFT WORTH THE COST OFF PUTTING IT IN

I picked up absolutley nothing at the track by adding an aluminum driveshaft. It is noticeably lighter though. I'm not taking it out though.

I am contemplating getting one simply because I have a strange vibration at the higher mphs. Aluminum DS are balanced a lot better then my stock iron one is...
