Don't assume that the number made has anything to do with whether they work well or not...

Yeah Dude, I was just wondering if the manufacturer actually answered the email the OP sent... Does Brian work for Magnus as a Cust. service Rep?
COVR4...Your right I should'nt assume....

The two manifolds use distinctly different methods behind there inlet configurations. The HKS actually uses a controlled cross section that forces the pressure distribution across the plenum to be nearly a constant. This manifold makes an attempt at distributing the air more evenly then a more conventional side feed inlet. Driven Innovations manifold does something similar by offseting the plenum on the runners.
Beyond that, the HKS manifold also features ITBs, dual injectors designed to provide better atomization at high engine speeds, tapered runners, and I'm sure some other very well engineered design aspects that are less obvious. Comparing this manifold to the HKS manifold is quite the stretch.

I don't know if I would say "VERY similar."

That having been said, the HKS is a pretty advanced solution that looks great just sitting there, don't you think?
