You mean the piping or to check if it works as designed?

They close above 1000 RPMs, and then open again at around 5000 RPMs.
I don't think there is much that can be done to set it up to be more effective...
Unless you scrap the whole thing I guess and go for the RS setup... but thats a point that raises a good few arguments Smile
