Default Steeda CAI VS C&L Race edition 95mm

My friend has a highly modified saleen superchardged , and Has a Steeda intake... I think the C&L would be a better applicatoin for his car. what you guy's think is the best intake for over 600hp/./.

I don't think it'll make that much of a difference since he's supercharged.

The better questions would be. 1) How much boost is he running? 2) Who tuned the car? 3) What MAF sensor is he using? 4)What is his rwhp at the moment?

Are we talking about the MAF tube as in terms of size? I have a hard time believing it's only 72mm since I'm running a C&L intake with a 88mm maf tube for basic bolt on mods.

Oh. I must be thinking of the Steeda with the high-flow elbow then.

He is running 8 to 10 boost... I am just wandering if there is anything technical data that would help in picking the right CIA for the car? For example the C&L flows 1,070 CFM . dose anyone know how much dose the steeda flows/.?
