HD Stage 1 vs. Ness Big Sucker

Other than price, is there a reliability or performance difference between the standard HD Stage 1 breather kit and an Arlen Ness Big Sucker? It's for a stock CV carb on a 1999 Evo.

I would say pick up a SE back plate from ebay..=cheap and put a K&N filter on it. I have heard of some people having trouble with the ness setup. Appearantly it isnt as good of quality...the back plate that is!!

I've got the Ness Big Sucker
No problems at all...nice set up.
The SE looks to me like it's almost a carbon copy....
