Default Which Intake would you pick?

I have a 2002 SSEI. Im looking to buy a CAI, a smaller pulley, and a 180 degree T-stat.
There are 2 intakes that I'm looking at, the 1st one is by Intense and the 2nd one is by JMB. As far as looks goes the JMB wins but I'm looking for performance not looksSo you guys that have more experience please put in your 2 cents. :?:

i like the way the JMB looks but they dont have a good track record for working well in the performance dept... however there was a few oh the club gp page that liked them..

VS.

the intense one is proven to flow great and works the way its suposta look....

function or looks... one or the other... if ya want both its way to expesive... not sayin the intense one is straght up butt ugly or anything like that but ya ill think the jmb one looks better...

its all on you... you want function or looks...

I've out grown the Intense FWI and will be selling it in the coming weeks if you might be interested. You'd need to buy the PCM tray from INTENSE or I could try to get you one and sell it as a complete package.

(I'm upgrading to a 4" intake given my setup.)
