Post Hughes Air-Gap vs. M1 for 5.2L
Which manifold do you folks think would be the better performer for HP gain, the Hughes Air-gap or the M1, for the 5.2L?

Thanks!

Only one person has done a comparison and they didn't provide dyno sheets but they claimed they were equal including the powerband. IMO the Airgap is overpriced.

The Dodge dealership up here in Alaska wants $640 for the M1 manifold (part #P5007398AB), and the Hughes is $599 right now. Shipping is really expensive to Alaska :-(

You can find M1s used for $400 all day long, and they'll usually add the install kit with them, if not it's $60 and $30 for gaskets.
