I think I did that experiment once by hooking up my vacuum pump to the VIAS fresh air port and maintaining a vacuum on it. Kept the vacuum pump tucked between the airbox and the battery. Problem was, the sh*tty tubes that came with the vacuum pump collapsed
Is the reason why the stock 5-spd 97-99 versus the stock 5-spd 00-01, where the the former is sometimes the same if not faster than the latter (in 0 to 60 springs), due to a malfunctioning in the VIAS? I know my car doesn't feel nor does it sound any different after 5000 RPM.
Maybe the VIAS aren't even working when they come off the line so when they are magazine tested, they are slower than developed to be. Or maybe, thats a stretch.

I pushed a small straw (from a can of STP silicone spray) through it and sprayed in there a little to lube it up, still not sure if it's working properly 'cause I still don't feel the VIAS working.
I'm going to do another test to verify the L-shaped rod is moving properly under no load.
