I got a response from the guy and this is what he said:
Question 1. Does the bigger pump make any difference on the performance?
You can add a ball valve to lower the output of the eheim. Other than making the reactor more cloudy, I don't really see any issues with a higher flow rate.
2. The second question is the obvious one, how is everything working out for you?
I am very happy with the mod. I have switched to ARM media instead of the deltec ROWA C+ or whatever it is called. It dissolves much easier and tends to turn muddy a lot sooner. The added power of the eheim helps to push the water throught IMO.
