Do not wire them open. They are designed top open close at certain RPMS to get the optimal HP/TQ curve by extending the intake runner. You'll only loose power @ different RPM ranges.

it would basically make u'r car have almost nothing until at least the first proper vris point.
u'd have no low-end but no better top end

Starting with page F2-100 of the online manual and the following couple pages give a great explanation of the VRIS system mazda used. Plus pictures of locations. Hope this helps
