I was reading about this as well. There is a rather lengthly write up about the merits of both on the C&L website. They suggest that if you plan to do a lot of mods to the motor (cams, heads etc.) the Race version may be a better bet, but on a lightly modded car it provides little to no improvement in power. So at that point it becomes looks and whether you believe in plastic intakes or alum.

I went with the street one, hopefully have it in a week or so.

Get the street version. It looks nicer.
