Interesting. 30 1/4" holes on a plate would work like a "resistive" (damper) element for air flow. This would dampen resonance effects.
Since the flaps are missing, they didn't want it to develop a torque reducing resonance at a lower rpm, my guess. Again explains why N52's without 3-stage intake doesn't show any dips in the torque curve.
