Here's what Mr Noon is up to... Pull them entirely out. Build a 3 liter so you wouldn't need improved low end torque from the secondaries. Problem solved. laugh

i don't have my plots in front of me... but iirc the dip occured at ~3400 rpm just when the secondariers were opening... i took the loss as something to do with air velocity and the maybe something to do with the pcm.
