i took a three inch chrome exhaust tip abd cut the ends off and put in a hole for the vacuum hose at the top. looks great and functions perfectly. check my thread 35$ chrome z tube for a picture.

Just get a Z-tube and call it a day.

The fact that they mount to the same TB & air box doesn't prove anything though, as they use flexible "hose-like" ends with clampers to attach to the TB & airbox.
I might compare them side by side if I have the time (doubtful). You might be right.

someone looking for gains from just intake, or just exhaust or just HFC or just plenum upgrade - will see minor to moderate at best... however, adding the proper combination results in more viable gains. In the case of Z tube, it's a more free flowing design and has been shown to help most configurations (combination of breather mods).
