JCW Airbox Flapper Mod

The JCW airbox opens a valve above 4500 RPM to allow more more in and more noise out. I was just wondering if anyone has wired a switch to open this valve on demand. I'd be willing to try it if anyone can supply or direct me to the appropriate wiring diagram.

I believe that some people have permanently opened it, and gotten less than desirable results.

One of our local Mini tuners removes them from every JCW box he puts in...
