In my opinion, I don't think there is a comparison at all. One makes power and one loses power.

The TT (in theory) seems like it would work, with the splitter design in mind. Problem is, that it is still too small, using the stock sized T-pipe, and then is made even smaller by putting the splitter in there, decreasing the inner volume.

The IPD plenum is an entirely crafted out piece, and not only is larger, but has much more into the R&D for improved airflow.

There was a (controversial) thread in the forums where the Technotorque lost power, dyno backed.

On the flipside, almost every single dyno chart I've seen with the IPD proved real power gains...

I'm no racecar engineer... these are my thoughts on this though...
