Watched a video that said you could gain hp by removing the carbon restrictors. Has anyone done this?
Not sure what that might affect downstream or is it purely air flow.

It seems the reports lean more toward a greater seat-of-the-pants throttle response feel improvement than the dyno displayed determination.
