It shouldn't. The side vent holes remain the same size at all times.

im sorry, but what? hooter? no matter how hard you try i dont think you'll ever be able to turn your xbox into that bar with the well endowed waitresses that pretend they like you for tips. that would be a pretty sick mod though......
