Revozport Carbon Induction System vs. Boca Carbon Fiber Air Inlets

I have been looking at these two parts and trying to compare them to understand the price difference. The Revozport part is ~$1000, where as the Boca part is ~$1800. Thats a big price difference. Which part do you think is of higher quality? Are there noticeable gains with each like published?

Are you sure it's not the opposite? Normally Revozport are way more expensive than Boca. If Revo is cheaper, I would go with them for sure... they have better rep for making quality parts.

Revo is TUV certified and they make great products.

And if cheaper it's a win win!

Boca is way cheaper than $1800. Every item on that website is overpriced, but I'd still recommend Revozport.

Nick means it should retail for much less, your mhp link is way overpriced. Try buying straight from BOCA.

Nonetheless, Revozport is the way to go at 1000$.

I'd save the money and put it towards a Renntech unit if that is possible.

I was going to ask why you didn't compare the RennTech with the two but looking at the price tag ($3K) I see why

Thumbs up Which is better buy ??

One of my friend have bought one from Revo. The Revo one is with fiberglass backing plate not full carbon fiber intake system, which cannot isolate the heat from engine . In which the fiberglass portion will absorbed heat which introduce warm air back into the system. But full carbon fiber is way better at isolate heat, like the Boca one I got is 100% full carbon fiber with no fiberglass backing is much much lighter. It also comes with k&N filter which Revo does not. Boca obviously is a better buy in terms of performance. I would buy straight from Boca design.
