Obviously the cooler the intake charge the better, so what gives?
Lastly, has anyone removed them/ cut 'em off?

The shutters are pretty much mandatory for Canada.
Serious issues up here with moisture in the intercoolers freezing and causing complete loss of power.
Simply covering the intercooler corrects this problem.
