Default Air restrictor mod

For those who have installed headers how many of you have done the air restrictor mod and what will it affect if you don't? Tia

If you don't do it, you could have check valve flutter... which causes a rattling under the hood.

I did it during the header install. Never ran the headers without them.

I did it on the Macs I used to have. Do it, you will be glad you did. Here is an old link to the air restrictor mod.
