Default J's or Spoon Snorkle for more Power?

I am looking at getting an intake soon, and It has come down to one of these two options: j's style or spoon style, just because I do not want to got with the aem/injen etc style intakes. I will also be getting a K&N drop in filter, but the question is, which one will give me more power, and what Kind of gains can I expect from each? Here are links to the intakes. Thanks alot.

J's Style

Spoon Style

Snorkels don't gain any power at all. They bring in cooler air, so you don't lose what power there is.

If you are looking to increase power, intakes are pretty much a waste. They help a little with heat soak, and not much else.

I agree with what was posted above, you won't really see any significant gains with either intake, but what you will see is this thread moving to S2000 talk.

also even the J's snorkel you need to cut your stock hood or get the J's cf hood to fit it like the J's intake. the spoon goes in without hood modificiations

I saw an eBay knock-off of a Spoon snorkel today and considering the huge price savings it wasn't too bad.
