actually spent a good couple hours today talking to a few tuners around, JEM, Unigroup, Even had a chat with couple of the boys from GCG. ( who always try and tell me the -5's are responsive. ( so there customers say)
Each one said -5's are a much better option, apart from unigroup saying it depends on your application, All said there is really not much diffreance in response, Yet top end power and room for bigger set up will be lost in the future going -9's unless you plan to buy another set of blowers
