[TPIN] adding resistance to a horn?

I don't know that he makes one for picc, but contact Don Novy about his
AcoustiCoil device -- http://www.dmamusic.org/acousticoils/ --

  Hey guys,
  With Easter coming up I've dusted off the old picc, and I've
  noticed something that has bothered me ever since I've gotten it.
  I like resistance in a horn, and this picc feels really big. It's
  a Kanstul made French Besson, which I've heard is about the same
  design as a regular Kanstul, without all the extra bells and
  whistles. My mouthpiece has been a Bach 7E, which I hated, so I
  recently took advantage of the wwbw $3 mouthpiece closeout and
  picked up a Jet Tone 7S. It's brighter sounding, and adds some
  resistance, but the horn still feels huge.
  My question is this: I've heard that changing to a Louisville pipe
  can help with intonation, but is there anything out there
  designed to add resistance to the picc? I'm not looking to
  replace the horn, especially since I only play it 4-5 times a
  year, but I would like to find some kind of reasonable solution.
  Thanks!
  Matt
