No. The principle is the same as "vortex generators", the point being to keep airflow against the surfaces - ideally making use of the full port volume, not decreasing it. The way I see it.... I can see it helping to grab and turn it though over the short side but that theory didn't work for me when I tried it once. Last edited by B1MAXX; 12/24/23 04:32 PM.

Making rules where no rules were needed. Make a basic framework of rules, and then let then inovate. July 19th should be "Drive Like Rockford Day". R.I.P. Jimmie.
