Intake Install J's Racing--->ARC

So I picked up this ARC intake and tried it out to see the difference compared to the J's Racing. The VTEC changeover isn't as loud and it doesn't feel as powerful as the J's but it looks amazing. Here are some pics...

Thanks for looking.

J's Racing feels better (not starving for air) like the ARC intake which feels its starving.

I figured the J's would have the best throttle response. Must have cost you alot for both Im guessing!
