Without doing the boomba modified intake mani or another 75mm opening one I don't see the benefit of the boomba one. Also the IC pipes would have to be 3" I would think to warrant those. They look awesome, but just seem like overkill.
People on 8/9's are making well into the 800whp area on ported stockers to my knowledge.

Murlo is right, to make the 75mm Boomba worth anything you'd need a 3" LICP and a 75mm TB inlet, otherwise you might as well keep things cheap/simple and go with a ported stocker.

Boomba has been offering 64mm for a long time...you guys chose to talk about the 75mm. I've heard you guys talking about Milspec lately but they are doing the same thing.
The 75mm doesn't require downtime, which seemed desirable at the time. I couldn't care less now.

very true...I assumed you meant the 75mm since that is what you bought.
My bad.
But Boomba charges a lot more and milspec has been around longer I believe and has had great results with tons of evo 8/9 stuff. Mil Spec is a more reputable shop with a lower price...whats not to love about that.

Just go buy a stock 60mm 1G TB for $30 and be done.
