for the most power i would go with the buschur upper pipe w/ mini battery kit. its saves weight and piping the shortest distance.
i also like the UR piping kit and the polished RMR ($$)
also you want to factor in what intercooler you going to use or upgrade to.

Even AMS claimed that they're not worth anything more than to make the engine bay look pretty.

Your absolutley right MrBonus. UICP piping is a way they can charge you for easy bent and welded pipe. Your best bet is to flow better with a bigger FMIC. And if your really concerned about your hoses flexing the Samco kit is really nice, I have seen Samco hoses for another car in person and they are top notch. I also read a thread somewhere on here that the hoses gave an extra 5HP at the wheels, although we all know that is hard to determine if that is an actual increase or a difference in the Dyno, weather, etc.
Let us know what you choose and furthermore what you finally feel if you do buy new pipes. This also makes me wonder why no company besides Buschur has made a better Lower intercooler pipe. Correct me if I'm wrong here though!
