From what i can remember they deliver power differently, think one is more topend so not really usable unless you extend the rev limit (which isn't smart unless you get uprated conrods)
And the other is more usable throughout the rev range.
Could be wrong though so dont hold me to that

Manzel is a more direct airflow, lexmaul are more standard type fitment.
Dizzle is right, the lexmaul in thery gives more low end torque/power than the manzel, in thery, more overall power with the manzel though.
ARP bolts, raised rev limit, be sweet.

It depends what you want, as has already been said.
Lexmaul for low end power, Mantzel if you rev it to the limiter before changing.

I've got a VX performance one on mine (mantzel style). Even with a 4-2-1 manifold the bulk of the power is still very much at the top of the rev range. Once you get right up the top of the revs you can feel it pull as said to see the best gains from it you'd probably need a raised rev limit. Probably the next stage for mine
