 it doesn't matter how wide open it is or it is closed, the mixture will be 
the same, umm NO the mixture will not be the same, remember the shape of the 
cis "cone" the mixture will change with RPM when using the Continuous 
Insufficient System. period, we made no changes to our waste gate and saw 
boost  pressures change from 12 psi to 17 psi, the only change was no more 
CIS,  not having to suck up a plate, no comparision in spool up time, we get 
boost in 1st with 4:11 diffs, never did before. CIS sucks wind, spend your 
money wisely, get rid of CIS

... all the air that passes through the Aux Air Regulator is metered ... it 
doesn't matter how wide open it is or it is closed, the mixture will be the 
same ... the only thing that changes is the amount of air that is allowed to 
flow into the engine, and thus the idle speed.  The only thing deliberately 
affecting the mixture outside the fuel distributor (and its associated bits) 
is the cold start valve on the intake manifold.
