Default X51 Distributors etc vs IPD

Hi All - Searched a bit but never got a definitive answer as to which folks prefer - I'm pulling my intake distributers to powder-coat them and wondering if it's worth upgrading to the X51 runners/distributors. Already have GT3 TB etc. Headers and tune are all sorted. What do we think?

I personally feel that the x51 distributors and intake would give you a gain… but it will be expensive

You would need more than just an X51 intake to benefit, there's an assortment of additional modifications: https://rennlist.com/forums/parts-ma...-powerkit.html
