The one I saw. Mechanically, it can be completely closed. Practibly, it can be used like a carburetor slide from idle to fully wide open. It also could be positioned to tune out negative waves in the inlet tract. It did not open linearly with rpm. But moved in and out as required. Anyway that is how I remember it from when it was up on the dyno. Since then there has been an even clever double sided setup.
