So which intake is lighter and how much lighter is it than stock?
What is less restricted by the aftermarket "products"?

I have yet to see a benefit from aftermarket intakes on modern cars. Feel free to prove me wrong, but you must PROVE me wrong, not just say "oem's are restricted" explain to me how with evidence. And imo a 5 hp gain on a dyno chart is irrelevant, too many variables and at best placebo gains.

There is no benefit to the OEM "restricting" the intake.
