The difference between Grimspeed and the Mac types (Infamous/Delicious/P-Tuning/Even AEM has an identical one) is that the barbed fittings on the Grimspeed are really small. Just that fraction of a centimeter in inner diameter, those couple little kunt hairs of open space for air to flow makes all the difference.
Wow. $35 dollars?? That's way cheaper than the others. Why wouldn't someone want to just buy this one then... at the end of the day it just seems like you're paying for the name if they work the same.

EDIT: now that I realize, it probably comes un-terminated and doesn't come plug-n-play. Probably would explain the price bump. Seems like polarity doesn't even matter either and a lot of other people are doing this on other forums:
