What is the difference between the Revo intakes, I see they have 2 prices, £358.80 and £418.80... Both are a bit more than the EVOMS, is it worth the extra money though? How big or small are the gains on the Revo over the likes of EVOMS? Can't seem to find much info about them...

Changed mine to a REVO ceramic coated from ITG and it still gets bloody hot.  :confused:

wouldn't want to know what the temps hit for the non ceramic version  :scared:

Bit of gold tape around the black pipework of the Evoms...

Maybe the revo is better maybe its not without doing them back to back tests in same conditions same fuel etc you can't tell much.  I doubt while driving you'd notice any difference.

Revo one is not worth 150-200 more

If it's anything like their remaps it'll be an extra 500bhp.  :love:

Not that many reviews on them that I can find so I'm not prepared to spend the extra notes, even with 10% discount it's still a bit pricey...
