Totally agree, actually.
Flow through (or surge bypass or whatever) is the future of cans. Full stop. That's where everything is heading.
But, we are in the early days of "fuel injection" and I would still rather have my perfectly-tuned, 'no variables left to consider', Holley 4-barrel instead of some mechanical fuel injection.
I'm genuinely excited to see what direction this all heads. The CAT ODB can with surge bypass looks fairly incredible. A 30 cal can with less back pressure and port noise than a HUX Flow 7.62 and slightly better muzzle report than a dedicated 5.56 can like an RC2. All while using supersonic gas modeling to actually draw excess gas out of the gas system of an AR. Adding very very little gas drive.
And that's one company.
However, and I reiterate, my Specwar 556 is quieter than an RC2 at the muzzle by an easily perceptible amount and now my port nose is nill. I have had at least one experienced comp shooter, and SWAT guy, thinking it was 300 Black with supers as he stood right next to it.
