Default Billet vs. Cast CMCV Delete Plates

I have a set of both the cast and billet CMCV delete plates. I was going to install the billet ones, but I was curious if there is any benefit having the billet ones over the cast. Do they produce more power?

Thats what I figured. I bought both sets used, but I payed less for the billet set. So it was a deal I couldn't pass up.

If you got them cheaper then use them and sell the others....

Possibly a bit more on FI motors.

It is proven that they add more when running FI...like stated above, they add ROUGHLY 10hp but also eliminate a little low end torque (which happens to be my favorite part of my car)...I will be getting DP's when my blower is on for sure, but N/A I dont think it is worth it IMO

I'm installing a UDP and new tune at the same time, so I'm hoping that I won't notice any loss down low. And being that I'm going from a canned Diablosport tune to a Bamachips 91Octane race tune, I think I will notice a increase overall. I'm expecting a little over 15hp between the CMCV deletes, UDP, and new tune.
