OK now we see on same level I see what you mean now. yes tuning the vehicle for the mods you put on will always benefit. I read it as meaning mods in general will always inmprove.
Will the velocity stack make a difference over me just slapping a cone filter on, in theory yes it should.
As xd_kidd said it will look better than what I have which in looks is a plus. And completely agree with making it your own.
And I applaud people making attempts at trying to find ways to increase mods for our car. Especially since there is no love for the xD. So I don't want my posts on here at anytime coming off as other wise even though I know they do. I like playing Devils Advicate though. There is a difference , not to you specifically, with someone saying hey this should work and it only cost this much and a person or company saying this will work but it will cost this much. You know again nothing at you personally with that just a general statement. But if some one comes on here and says it should work and tries it and it works as good or better than expected for less than other parts HELLZ YEAH then. Also I look at cost per increase.
