if the TVIS stuck OPEN.. it would just be laggy down low, as the butterflys would be open.
If you reckon its runnin out of puff at 6k, could be coz the butterflys are stuck SHUT, which would cause shitt volumetric effiency at high revs
to check this?.. on a FWD, with a backwards tilt it could prove difficult. but if u could somehow reach it, could just try and move the linkages, (bar thingy..) but could be hard if you dont know what your feeling for under there.. Or you could attach a long hose to the vaccuum diaphram (suction thingy..) and just suck hard, you would know if they were moving by the vaccum you would create by sucking (if they were stuck you would get nothing)
hope this helps
