Don't know which I'd reccomend.. if you go with 1.7s your more likely to have ptv clearance problems with an e cam or tfs1 cam, so I'd do 1.6s because of that.

if you stay with a stock cam go with 1.72's.

if your going to switch cams later, get 1.6's.

the ssi is a nice looking intake but the top end is the only place you'll see a gain try a cobra or trickflow they are nice and you will keep most of your torque and will actually help your bottom end.

I have a few Pro Products, and their stuff is like NY city knock off stuff, you dont know the difference until you see the real stuff then you see where the money is saved QC and Finish, The PP stuff requires Casting clean up because they dont do it and their Support is very slow, I called about a problem and left a message (even though it was buisness hours) and found help elsewhere in mean time then they called back 2 weeks later to give me support, told them too little too late, guess theyre busy. and they only have one support person according to the receptionist. so he's prob swamped.and they sent wrong hardware with one of my pieces but its ok stuff you get what you pay for.
