of those who have been using it (WMS) for years, no one has reported ever having a problems with being dirty or sucking in water.

Found a dyno of someone running the WMS intake with 95mm MAF and it ran 300rwhp and 316rwtq.

My car stock was 270 rwhp and 292rwtq. That would be gains of 30rwhp and 24rwtq. That was using the canned WMS tune, more power may be available with a custom tune and certainly at higher speeds as it is a ram air intake.

I just bought a C&L Racer used off ebay for $94 shipped to my door...now you can't beat that and the Racer was the one I've had my eye on!

I recommend finding a good used on on ebay. I saved myself $181 that way.

JLT, C&L and C&L Race have worked very well for the guys I know who personally run them. I also find the C&L to be the most aesthetically pleasing, but that really isn't important. I'm sure that most of the other kits work just as well, but I can only speak for the ones I have personal experience with, and the JLT and C&L kits work. I also know one person who went with a K&N kit on an '05, and his numbers didn't come close to the C&L/JLT guys. While I'm usually a big fan of K&N products, it seems they missed the mark with the S197 cars.
