Pierre,

Intake ducts and intercolers perform entirely different functions, and it is difficult to say which will produce a greater delta in performance. Do both!!!

If you decide on FVD unit you will be waiting a long time if FVD (US) don't have them in stock, I placed an order way back, the outcome was 7 weeks wait! Service was awful!

Pierre,

I had more than one well respected tuner suggest the FVD piping creates turbulence and the EVO would be a better choice for that reason. I think they both would work very well and are realistically very similar in terms of performance.

Zippy, really no harm intended...I agree we are all entitled to our opinions...the problem is your statements sound like they are statements of fact...which does not exist. Let's just inform people about our opinions. My opinion is the reason you blow your MAFS is the V-flow, not the FVD intake plenum. I can't believe you still run that thing with 8 blown MAFs...slow learner. BTW I am running 600hp with stock MAF and have not blown it since I removed my V-flow!
