This is what we were looking for. It's ok to show that midrange loss because it's not about shear gain/loss it's also about reliability. People should ask the question if 8-9hp loss in the midrange is worth not having to worry about losing a motor due to the screws backing out.
Very cool data point here and definitely a very lucky owner! I'd say that the fractional torque loss at low RPM on the 3.2 will be far less noticeable than the noises that would happen if the engine ingests a butterfly screw. Solid K.I.S.S. solution that could prevent an expensive incident.

Very Informative! Thanks for putting these videos out of this topic!

Do you think that the lower RPM power loss could be due to Honda tuning it out with a newer OB2B ecu?
Why not just remove the plates and screws then?
What are the detriments of plenum resonances? Slower or uneven responsiveness at specific RPMs?
Will the delet kit increase high rpm response past 8.2k?
Sorry, this is not something we plan to test as we question the stress on the engine's reciprocating parts at that speed.
