I've seen the same debates, and often wondered who was correct.

In order to truely compare this mod to stock, one would need to test both intakes on the same engine, using the same carb. This testing would require driving the car under many different conditions, as well as dyno testing. There are plenty of things that can 10 HP or more at the dyno, but make an engine much less driveable on the street or track. A few extra HP at the dyno, that kills the real-world performance, isn't worth a hoot.
