The performance gains are not the same the plemum on the mantzel is a much more efficient design so you will gain more power with it.
But carnt knock the velos its good value but looks poo, also the mantzel is easier to fit apparently, i have fitted the mantzel myself to my GSI, and it was quite striaght foward

velos might look poo..but the gains are impressive when its fitted..also if you dont wanna show off what in your engine bay i suggest driving with the bonnet down anyway..its safer that way also...im gonna paint my velos kit up so its not the crappy aluminium box as standard..
