effect of switching CRV and ABV?

(I'm still trying to get a perfect boost pattern...)

I think my ABV and CRV have been switched since I bought the car (I checked the vacuum at which they should open to figure out which was which). What effect would this have? Anyone actually tried switching them to see what happens?

(I know I could just switch them and see if my boost problem is fixed, but I'd like to get some advice before I put everything back together)

actually switching the valves themselves will have no effect on performance of the twin turbo system... now switching the vacuum lines that feed the valves will cause them to act opposite of what they are supposed to...

****. I thought I'd found my problem. Guess I get to keep on testing stuff...

Thanks for the reply.

Makes me wonder...if the CRV and ABV are interchangeable, why would they have different operating points? Anyone know?
