They still use it. Problem is it's complicated and noisy and a bee-yotch to maintain, supposedly. There's still a throttle plate, just in case the system fails and defaults back to normal valve operation.

Always wondered if you could do throttle-less more cheaply... like say, using an intake tube that's flexible, and having bladders control tube diameter...
