What is the general opinion of adding the powerduct? What brand performs best? Does it really help? I have heard everything from WOW to it being a total waste! I have a vortex rammer, vinci MAF, & TBB bypass already! Will I get any SOTP gain?

Mainly for looks. On a car that already has a aftermarket intake, like yours, it would be around 0-3hp.

Buy it for looks only as I don't think your going to gain much.

Any versions out there will perform in the 3-5 hp gain range on an 'airboxed' motor. By themselves,(stock airbox) there maybe more gains but I haven't seen hard proof.
