hi Eric
All indications are (on the camera) that the dust shaker works.
Also Hutech specifically state that the mod will not disable the dust shaker.
I dont suppose Ted Ishikawa wants to release too much info on the subject.
I did find that Ted and Mia were very friendly and helpful but then I did spend almost US$3000.
Send him a pm and ask for clarification and get it straight from the horses mouth
