Default Trick flow Intake

Whats the difference between Street and Track Intake by Trck Flow?? I basically have stock heads. Probably leave that alone for noe, but would like to upgrade the INtake and a T/B, so please tell me the difference between the two. My car is just a weekend warrior and I want something that's just a hot rod style and quick take offs. I was told the street will be good for that.

Well without good flowing heads your gonna be bottlenecked, so its not gonna help all that much. It will help, but not as much as it would with good flowing heads. It may even hurt your bottem end.

"My car is just a weekend warrior" - your car drinks heavily on the weekends and sobers up over the week?

lol anyways the street is for good top end performance while still retaining your low end power ie idle-5000rpm, the track is for more top end power 1500rpm-6500rpm

Thats what I'm afraid of. I want to just do the intake for now. Is it rue that it makes at least 25-30 HP?
