Just a thought, but if he is running a full 3" IC piping, wouldn't that create some form of a vacuum at the restrictor plate point therefore increasing the overall airflow? Air wants to flow from high pressure to low pressure: high pressure before restrictor plate, lower pressure after the plate= vacuum, right? Think of it like an exhaust system, running a 20G with a stock O2 housing with 3 inch exhaust is going to have an overall better flow than a 20G, stock O2, and 2.5 inch exhaust, right? Wouldn't it be the same concept?
