It would be very difficult to cheat the actual SIR. A simple diameter check can be preformed with a go/no-go type gauge to ensure compliance. Flexible membranes would be rather easy to catch. ...
I'm not exactly sure, but I would assume that the mixture would go very rich. I'm really not farmiliar with the power commander, but I think the lack of available air would be out of its tuning...
Ok, I'll chime in here... During my FSAE time I did a project optimizing our inlet restrictor and spent a LOT of time in front of the computer, NC lathe, flowbench, and dyno. Throughout the project...

There are ways to cheat a SIR as well... If someone really wants to cheat, they can always find a way. It just might be a little more difficult with the SIR.
