not sure, but a decat is a lot cheaper. and probably will give more of a gain.

i just bought a janspeed mani, very well made, got it from a 'contact' at janspeed, got it for way less than a raceland would be. and janspeed fit easier.

i just fitted a janspeed to the exact same car it decats it str8 away . fitting it seemd a pain at first coz of the relocating the oil filter but it turned out to be extremely easy sum one has stuck a how to guide for a furio in the forums was extremely helpful as it the same steps for our vtr power gains are gd ad expect about 10 bhp combined with a gd system.

10bhp is barely achievable with a good system, manifold and induction, you would need at least that and a decat to safely get 10bhp mate.
