Default Stock intake box vs Aftermarket intake (cold/short ram)??

Set up b16b in 98 hatch i/h/e Driving style autocross and up/downhill events. Any opinions tests ect.. From what I noticed Spoon sports uses a stock intake set up with a high flow filter but this is the only company that uses this from what could find.

Honestly, you'll have better results with an aftermarket intake.
