Removing flapper from primaries..?
Okay kinda random question but would it necessarily be a bad thing if I remove the primaries flapper off my CC Q-JET??Like what would the pros and cons be of that......the reason I am asking this is because a buddy of mine did it to his car and he sees that he got "better throttle response" but I'm not too sure about that.....

Its called a choke. And when the car is warm the blade stays vertical anyways. So like Aperion said - inconsequential increase.
