If you're not getting the bipipe, I'd go with the MTM simply because of fitment.

I have the MTM TBB. It seems pretty damn durable.

Default I had both and sold the Samco. MTM was a much nicer piece.

Default One thing SAMCO has to work on is the uniformity of their product.

If you compare 50 "identical" custom samco intake hose, you will notice subtle differences. One is slightly longer, shorter, wider, etc. Is it better than a stock TBB? Of course. Is it better than the MTM? Who knows? Is it better than the bi-pipe? I think we all know the answer to this one.
