I have tried searching so don't ask. Either I am searching something to direct or I need a more vague criteria.
Based on what I have found the Helix one only drops .5 PSI? However on a poll of which FMIC people like it is the VK motorworks cause of the price?
ETS has more streamlined ducting. If anyone has info or a link that would be great.

I think you're over-simplifying by focusing on that question. A simple straight through cross-pipe will have the lowest pressure drop. Unfortunately it won't do much in the way of intake air cooling...
Generally more pressure drop = better cooling, but low pressure drop = low boost, fast spooling, etc. Looking at pressure drop only gives half the picture, unfortunately.
