Socionics puts more of Freud's ideas into the mix.

With an ENTp type, Ne and Ti are part of the Ego block. Next up is the Superego block. The ENTp has Se and Fi in their Superego block. Then comes the Superid block, where the ENTp uses Si and Fe. And finally, on the Id block, the ENTp uses Ni and Te.

But I do think the V.I. is pretty interesting and often very accurate. Most people associate this with socionics, but it exists among certain sects of MBTI practitioners. For example, a great number of us are able to tell an INFP simply by looking at their picture.
