velos is as good as mantzel performance wise just it looks crap. only difference in price is cause mantzel is cast and velos fabricated (which is cheaper to do)
both stopped producing them now so i'd go for dbilas from regal

lexmaul gives 8-12bhp whereas dbilas will give 15-20bhp with mapped ecu

if you can actually notice the difference between the two then ill eat my hat! lexmaul will give 15+ with a mapped ecu, i gained 15bhp with a lexmaul and superchip.
