does the racer intake come with aluminum or stainless steel pipe or just plastic?

 

The Racer is plastic. The street is aluminum.

 

which is better?

 

I have both. The street looks nice and will give you plenty of gain untill you upgrade to headers and cmdplates. It also holds up very well for daily driving. The racer really isn't necessary till you do more upgrades including cams. I use the street for normal everday cruising and I use the racer for track days.

 

98yellowgt "slim" just installed the racer before he put it on Doug'd dyno this last weekend. Might pm him and see how he likes it. I think he's still smiling!

 

Well I have been told the exact opposite. The only thing the racer is not supposed to be good for is nitrous, because of a backfire etc. The racer is bigger and will let breath better than the street, hence called racer intake, not street. So when you add pulleys, delete plates,cams, supercharger the racer is what you need to give you more air while giving it more fuel. the street is smaller hence less air. So if as long as your not doing nitrous, racer is more air. Good luck
