While I don't have any proof, the JLT CAI's and RAI's flow more air than the competitors. Only reason I say that is because it uses larger piping.

Ex. JLT CAI on the right...

The size of your T/B butterfly plate is all the air your engine can handle, so to say bigger tube more air....I don't believe it. You could use a 55gallon drum for your cai tube and you would get the same numbers for dyno. I have heard that JLT has given lean codes and suggest a tune with them, but I can almost guarantee that's because the ben just before the T/B is bigger than others and not because the overall size of the tubing!!! JLT pipes do have a sharp clean look to them. Competetively priced.

The pipe on my JLT CAI was about a 1/4 inch too big for some reason. No matter how we attempted to fit it, it just wasn't going to go in correctly.

Great fitment other than that mix up, performs relatively well with a tune. Just don't expect to burn your tires off from it. It's more of a compliment to the bigger stuff (as said before.)

as for the mpg thing, i noticed about another 10-15 miles per tank when i took the hi flow slp cats off and went to o/r.
