Audible wise the Eventuri is much much much louder and noticeable (again v1.0 because never tried v2.0) so if you are after sound, then Eventuri 2.0 is probably the route you want to go... Closed box system + not as much audible + slightly sexier aesthetics would be GruppeM...
YMMV, but my experience has been my car not really feeling the Eventuri, whereas with GruppeM, she hasn't had a single moment of hesitation or hiccups...
Thanks for the input. I can see why there could be some benefits of the closed system. Losing some intake noise is kinda of a bummer but performance matters. If performance and price were equal I would go Eventuri as I think it looks better. The GruppeM still looks nice, but at the same time it looks like a bunch of flat covers. I wish you would have had the v2.0 just for comparison reasons as there was clearly some concern if you decided to swap it out.
