quick question Viper or Brospeed branch

I'm building a 2L 8V mk1 ady,
What branch will be better for performance?
R1600 for Viper excluding fit or Brospeed for R1200 excluding fit by powerflow?
Is the extra R400 worth for the viper branch? O an I'm getting the 57mm f/f by powerflow.
I know it might be discussed already but I just want your guys expertise.
Thanks

I have the brospeed on my car.

Had no problems with it, can't comment on power diffrence as I didn't really feel it, but I fitted the branch after the exhaust, should have done everything together.

From what I hear the Viper is very good, give it a try.

Having had both , I would always opt for the brospeed on the mk1 8V , it's made by bosal and even comes with a heat deflector to keep heat away from the steering rack boot's ..

Its an awesum piece off kit ..

Mail me for pics off it ..

Brospeed were also VW's supplier of choice for the 100 citi R-lines and 150 Citi 1.8i's :cool: :hi:

My car has Brospeed although i must admit i've never had experience with Viper.

@ Pluto +1, heatshields FTW :evil: :cool:

I say both will be so close, the difference will be negligible. I have experience with the Viper 16v branch... and its amazing! The Brospeed is awesome too, and as said already, it comes factory fitted to the 1.8i's...and if it comes with the heat shields... then I would say, go brospeed. But really, there is probably nothing in it!
