Default They've been about the same price...>>

In the recent few months if you have a 225. If you are a 180, the Forge includes a replacement intake manifold (necessary) to make it work...

As to performance, you won't notice a difference

Default Absolutely...

Arguably it's better since I think the core is slightly larger, and the end tanks are cast not welded.

Default I like mine and I agree it looks better than the Forge weldup

<center><img src="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/23227/102-0219_img.jpg"></center><p>I've installed one of each. The Forge unit is on the front TT. The O.ct is on the silver one to the left. Sorry the front is not off the silver one they were not done the same day. Both had minor issues of fitment but nothing too difficult to remedy with simple hand tools. My O.ct came with a modified towhook which I don't think was included with the Forge. They Turned down the shoulder so it would fit past the Samco hose.
