Default what would happen if..... H22 question

I run my H22 without the IAB hooked up are there any cons to this? I driven with it hooked up and the cars seems to pull harder without the IAB being connected, why is that?

when you disconnect the IAB, you lose about 12hp in the midrange. High end feels better because the midrange is softer. Your car should be much more responsive down low with the IAB hooked up. Honestly, the dual stage intake really is a good design, best of both worlds. I'd leave the IAB connected until a bolt-on aftermarket manifold with dyno proven gains is available.
