Question Help, need comparsion pics of different inlet elbows.

I'm looking to purchase a new inlet elbow (mine has been cracked for some time) and I'm tired of the stock elbow look so the 1LE version is not a choice. I'm looking at the Vortech and Trickflow elbow (only other two out) but I'm having a hard time finding pics to compare the two. Could somebody help me out here?

Thanks

Yeah, it's nothing special but c'mon what's so special about the vortech and the other ones other than brand name? All that they all are is just a big bent tube... so is this one. and I got mine for like 25 shipped.
