I have no clue I haven't tried either one of them, however, after doing a lot of research, I don't think you need either one, the T shape of the factory plenum does it as well as anything since the air flow is not constant, without constant air flow the Y in the tube serves no useful purpose. The Boxster engine works and acts like 2 seperate connected 3 cylinder engines and I see no advantage to a 74mm throttle body or either plenum, IPD's or Pedro's. It would be like putting a 750 Holley double pumper on a 283 engine, not only an overkill but will reduce power, especially in this analogy since all you may need is a 500 Rochester or at most a 650 double pumper, I'm leaving mine as is, I figure the Porsche engineers are pretty smart. I have had my ECU flashed and have a Borla catback exhaust, that's about all I need.
