Agency are claiming 5-8HP increases with 9.4 crank HP when dyno showed 2HP increase.
Fabspeed claims 5-7HP, and the dyno backs it up showing about 6.5HP increase.

Torque increase was about the same for both intakes. 5-6 ft-lbs.
And both include heat shield for intake a.k.a. cooling box.

Does anyone know which one is really the better choice? I just want to make sure I am making the right choice with Fabspeed.
Six of one , half a dozen of the other . The Fabspeed intake is actually Evolution Motorsport's product. As far as performance is concerned, there are highly polarized views as you can see . I installed the Evo intake on my vehicle, and to be truthful the hp gains were minimal . However, the sound it produced was intoxicating ! An awesome bark at mid range and upper rpm's . The downside is that you have to periodically clean and oil the filter, otherwise it will raise hell with your MAF sensor .
