Default CAI and tuner help please!

Hi guys, as you can tell I am a bit of a noob, I just got a 2002 GT and want to give it some more juice. I'm definately in the market for a CAI and am still reading and trying to decide which to go with. I've read that a lot of people use the JLT2 and the C&I, I would LOVE more information on both of these, also some true feedback from those who know and actually have one. Now onto tuners... don't know much, but have a better idea after reading some of these articles, I also am in the market for this and ask the same as above, who has one and can offer a testimonial and what company is the best to use. I've heard onlt good things about Brenspeed so far and will most likely look into them, but give me some help guys, would appreciate it greatly.

ok. i have a jlt cai. used to have a k&n. jlt is the best. even though you wont get that much power out of a cai, jlt still looks the best
and i have a sct xcal2. best handheld tuner out there. alot more options then diablo.

well if your wanting to save money just go to either ebay or americanmuscle and order you a cai from either of those, if your wanting a better fit and a more factory looking look i'd go with the jlt. Both are gonna be about the same on hp not much difference. But if you go with the ebay or american muscle one thats between i'd say 40 and 90 bucks you'll probly end up having to make some adjustments when installing. I've had both, the jlt fit better than the cheaper american muscle or ebay version. As with the tuner, it's well worth the money i do believe, i just installed a sct 2 tuner on mine with just a slp catback and a cai and it was definately noticeable... if you got any other questions just shoot me a pm man and i'll get into more detail
