The TFS intake is better. Once you put some good heads and a cam on the engine the difference should be noteable.

There is the link to my website. Another cool thing is that hardly anyone has he Trick Flow intakes, so when you pop your hood everyone is like "ahhhh" =P Oh and on my webpage my friend has the edlebrock intake, I think that will make your choice by comparing right there(as far as looks go). I'll sell it pretty cheap too.

i think the black is cool but then you have to worry about scratches and chips and all that..it will show alot more on black then silver

I went w/ the TFS track heat, and i'm very happy w/ my choice (looks great too). For $400 you're kind of limited in your choice of intakes.....for the $$$ go w/ the regular TFS (street and track are closer to $500).
