Default BFI question

so i was thinking of making a BFI but had a concern. if i make one, will it stop me from going FI ?, cause it seems its taking up a good amount of space in the engine bay. also i been looking at threads of BFI's, but i cant tell which one is the most efficient one since theres quite difrent versions, can anyone link me to the most recent or best build. thanks

BFI has nothing to do with it, if you go FI, you wont need that stock airbox. sound like you need to do a little more research before you start spending money on FI equipment

oo ic, i knew you didnt need a stock air box for FI, just that i thought with the process of making a big customized intake, that it would create problems in taking it off and putting something in its place.

The BFI is easy to get rid of. Nothing is set in stone really except cutting up your air box. And honestly the BFI takes the same space as the OEM air box except with some covers on top of it and around it.
