[QUOTE="Visor57, post: 64927, member: 759"] One of the motivations for using straws is to reduce port turbulence and promote laminar airflow, but whether this is actually the result is debatable. The results I've read about imply that the port changes to a resistive flow element and basically most port theory goes out the window. Your best bet would be to experiment and measure the results for yourself, but I wouldn't stick straws into an existing design as a tweak because it will definitely throw the alignment out of whack. Then again, you may just like the resulting sound... *shrug* [/QUOTE]
