yeah, so Gaz... go for the lexmaul, it keeps the torque, and its easier to fit

Lexmaul is a direct replacement for the standard part, but it has a bigger internal capacity, and a shorter inlet route, so it allows more air in quicker, but it also keeps the standard inlet piping, so it keeps the torque too

Dbilas replaces all of that, so it allows the air straight in to the engine, a very short route in, but it loses some torque because of this

As Rob said really, more direct route for the air to flow is the main difference i believe.

Mine still puts a smile on my face, espcially from about 20 to 100 mph.

lexmaul if you want a quick fix.

dbilas if you plan to go mad with it and aim for 150+ bhp

thats my opinion

mantzel, good, more difficul to fit as it reloactes the throttle bodie, and IMO needs a rasied rev limit to see the benifit (ive had both)
