You would be surprised how much that small orifice on the Elite valve flows under pressure. They have their reasons for putting it there, I think one reason us to increase velocity and create a venturi/eductor effect

Hopefully in a month or two I will have the comparison vid out, most people will not care about the APEX performance as you can't get that can anymore anyway, but it will be a great vid on 500 with a can, and 500 with out. The first test is no can, then the APEX, now the Elite so if anything people can see the no can compared to the Elite.

Looking forward to it, but what I really want to see is a comparison with MM, which many owners here seem to think is awesome because it has big hoses and can flow more air.
Problem is, the can isn't big enough (I don't think volume is much more than the Elite E2X) to handle the increased flow (i.e. volume would need to be increased significantly to achieve required velocity drop, but there isn't enough room in the engine bay) - moisture separator design 101.
