Question Whisper or SLP?

Just wondering if on is better than the other? Hp wise, durability, or simply the way they're made. Which is more preferred? Any suggestions are welcomed.

I assume you are taking about lids, not MAFs, nor pulleys, nor ram air induction plates, etc... which both companies also sell.

Direct flo is good. Whatever is the best price.

I like the K&N FIPK. That's the one I plan to get. But between he Whisper and the SLP my vote is for the SLP. It's cheaper and it is SLP. I have a liking for that company.
