I completely removed my acis and ground down the hard edge around the butterfly with a dremel.

Are you sure that diagram shows our engine???

Here is one from cp-e

The last one seems to be more accurate cuz I feel that increase in torque at around 4k rpm.

Am I missing something???

Depends on which ACIS system you put it on. The twin TB intakes, nobody has figured out what is optimal yet. The older single flap ACIS systems, velocity is increased by leaving it closed, giving you more power.
The engine will still take off around 4000rpm because the ECU's don't advance timing until it also opens the ACIS's VSV.

A/T's stall @ 2400rpm. Giving them a few more coals on the fire for that split second let's them accelerate into the fat of the powerband where the car v6's take off.

Instead of going from peak torque @ stall speed, dropping 10lb-ft, then gaining it back a half second later, it feels slower. You don't get's the burst of acceleration @ 4100-4200rpm when the flap would normally be closed.
The only way you can see what happens, is locking the torque convertor (To prevent torque multiplication skewing data) on a dyno, or accurate road testing that takes into account the smoother onset of power.




The screw is simply an adjustment as to how far the ACIS flap closes. Unbolt it from the manifold and look at it to see how it's closing... That's the only way you're going to know. Once it's closed, it's not gonna close any more. ;) It's been a few years now, but I remember mine being about a screw turn off from as perfect as it'll get without sealing the seams.

So i can tighten the screw all the way where the thingy is flat.......
And it will close the ACIS flap all the way????

That will *close* it all the way (WIthout sealing it), but you've completely missed the purpose of doing it.
What you want to change, is how soon the ACIS is closed.

I don't really understand here, I mean I do but I sort've don't. I guess I'd have to try it and maybe I will if it's reversible.

And as for that dyno, it's probably on a manual transmission. This is my stock dyno, very similar, and the dip is definitely there. It would be nice if someone had the access to a dyno and could test this out.
