The stock intake system looks like it would provide more cold
air to the car.. Since it seems to get air from almost outside
of the vehicle vs the LMS which seems like it'll suck up more
of the heated air that's trapped in the engine compartment, But i guess the
fact that the LMS's tubing is almost a straight shot , compared
to the stock unit that has sharp turns in it, makes up for the added
hot air that the LMS might get..
What do you all think?

It's a gain in power either way you think about it.
