Default Stillen vs. Smoky: your take on intakes

So, the parts from Top Secret and Amuse are in and ready to go on Project: Mothra. We thought we'd take this opportunity to do a little experiment. As you may know from Project Mothra

we have Stillen headers and cats, NST pulleys and a few other things already on the car. We now also have a Stillen G3 intake on the car, as that seems to be the benchmark for performance.

Tomorrow, we'll do a dyno pull with the Stillen intake. Then, we'll swap out the Stillen with a Top Secret intake -- same car, same day, all things equal. We'd like to see for ourselves which one comes out on top. Check the Project Mothra web site for the official results beginning Friday and for updates on the build. In the meantime, what do you think we'll find?

UPDATE:

The results are in!

Stillen G3 CAI: 281hp, 217tq
Top Secret CAI: 286hp, 224tq
