the best out of the 2 would be the second one which is a piper cross VIPER.

But neither are to good tbh.

the viper has a metal casing, which gets hot so totally defeats the object of being an enclosed filter to suck cold air.

Best bet is to get a raceland OR a BMC carbon enclosed :)

also the KnN gen 2 kits are good, but pricey at the 180+ mark

In theory the second one. With a good source of cool air, it should produce more bhp.

The first one will make more noise as its an open filter but it will get bloody hot and warm air is not good for performance.

Try a blast with both and choose which ever you prefer

cant remeber exactly which mag it was, but they tested the viper and it actually lost bhp over the standard air box
