The IDA will move the torque curve up a bit and will make most hp and torque
higher up the range. May have some drivability issues due to this but with a
stock port and the right chokes it would work ok.

The DCOE will normally use a wrap around intake that places the carb velocity
stacks pointing towards the oil fill tube. This longer intake will move the torque
down in the range and drivability will be easier to obtain. Also DCOE can be
outfitted with a cold start assist (like a choke), so its a more street friendly
carb.

The IDA will give you the maximum power but just may not be where you want
it and the DCOE will make it an easier tune for a DD the car. Not to say an IDA
can't be a DD carb but it will take a bit more fussing about to get it right and
to live with.
