Yes they're the same.


And I don't know where people come up with these "ratings."

The stock box is fine. A stock box with a better filter is better. A properly designed intake is better. Plus... I like hearing my turbo. I've never driven a vehicle with a stock intake. It's the quickest easiest way to get more air into your motor... more air more fuel more power.

Speaking of intakes. I recently read that to get to its top speed the Veyron inhales as much air as we breathe in over 4 days lol

That's fine. Feel free.

I did that. Then I put an intake on and made power gains.

If you can do it cheap AND do it right... why not.
