The only down side is that in order to really test that you have them fully opening at their optimum rate is to get on it really hard while you have a measuring marker on them, tweak them, and repeat. Unless you have a stadium parking lot or something that has absolutely nothing that you can hit, it can be pretty dangerous on the street because the goal is to accelerate as fast as you possibly can which, frankly, is just not that safe. I don't know any other way to test that they're working for you at peak performance.
