yeah i noticed no difference to power or economy with the ecotec valve fitted the trumpet sound is normal and mine stayed even after 30k miles
it may also need adjusting every 10k miles or so you will know when the you hear it trumpeting at idle. the filter only only muffles the sound so it was given to a mate for his 306 as a oil breather as thats what it was originally designed for

never used the dechoke or lube on the civic and the ecotek valve is still sitting in my toolbox as theres no way it going in the bora
