Please share more about this? I've only had my Vortechs for a month or so and had no idea they could be modded. I would love them to be quiet.

What should I google?

You can mod the Tunze powerheads by cutting the flow director and making it shorter. This creates a wider flow pattern similar to the Vortechs. It doesn't even void the warranty. If you ever want to change it back, you just buy a new casing.
