I think there would be less restricton in the U.S. models. The rotating valves in the euro version look like they would disrupt airflow more than the smooth sleeves in the U.S. versions.

cool... so would it bolt up to an S4 with no modifications other than taking out the ACV and sleeves?
Yes, it does fit....we have this manifold (with removed sleeves and other crap) mounted on my US NA S4 block.....
