A buddy of mine (rx-7 driver) is suggesting I cut flaps and use two cups, a smaller one inside a larger one so I'd have one for low speeds and another for high speeds. Kind of like the complicated setup mazda had on it's 90s rx-7s, the setup that killed that car in the american market. I'm going to try trimming it down just a tad, I was also thinking about possibly using varying amounts of tape across the opening of the cone? Would that have the same effect?
