Hi Dan. My experience has been (I have 3 sets of HIF4's and a Weber
downdraft) that my car has much more power using the HIF4's. I've used 2
different sets of the HIF4's. I used the Weber off and on for about 4
years. After time testing both kinds, I've kept the HIF4's on the car. It
just runs better and has more get-up-and-go.

Good luck,

Agreed - have both weber and su setups and quite prefer the su's
