Intake Comparison: Agency Power Vs. Fabspeed

Ok, These are the cheapest functional intakes on the market right now both priced at $700.00 and both claim to be making around 20 hp to the wheels. Agency is slightly more powerful but Fabspeed is inlaid in CF, and may arguably be better looking. Which would you get ?

Agency Power/Vivid Racing Intake




Price: $700.00
Power Claimed: 21-32hp and 22 lbs of torque

Fabspeed looks like it really is designed well, looks like you would get some really cool air! I cant believe they even put a product like that out.

I don't believe any of the Air Intakes make a difference, not enough for even the cheap ones at $700.00.The sport tech Carbon fiber ones looks great but not worth the money.Whats with the fabspeed ?? WTF how is that going to help cool the air going in.....Why would anyone with a decent name in the buz put that out?

I put a used fabspeed on my car (100.00), little if any difference from a stock box with K&N,maybe 29 hp but you can't feel it, but a lot more room and sounds a little better. There is NFW I would pay 700.00 for it though, IMHO

Can't speak to power gains, but the Fabspeed intake sure does look odd. Can't imagine it helps much pulling in hot air like that...
