Between those two, JLT all the way. The JLT, C&L, and Steeda are all about the same. Actually, all of them are about the same when tuned, but those three seem to be a little bit better than the rest. Plus the JLT is plastic, lighter/disappates heat faster. The metal dosen't seem to really affect dyno numbers too much, but with the hood closed, driving around....I gotta think it hurts a little bit. Then again, the rubber tube on my JLT actually gets pretty hot to the touch after driving around with it. The plastic tube that connects to the Mass Air housing barely even gets warm, as does the housing.

i had the jltII + sct Xcal and i was very pleased with both.
as far as which tuner is better, if you plan to have a shop tune
your car in the future, buy whichever tuner they like to use.

I just had the C&L installed with an SCT tuner and some other mods. I understand the JLT and C&L produce the best performance, with the JLT edging out the C&L. I went with the C&L because the diference was only a few horses and I thought it looked a little better. Ow it was also in stock, I'm impatient!

You need to get a kit from B amachips or Brenspeed.

I was thinking the C&L....But after reading some forums it looks like the JLT takes the trophy!
