I was wondering if there is a big difference between the two... beside the 100 dollar difference... i know both are good brands... http://www.stage3motorsports.com/cat...d_air_intakes/

 

C&L is better quality, but performance wise it is not any better than the JLT. IMO get the JLT and save the extra $100 for something else.

 

Both are great intakes, I'd go with the C&L Racer just because it looks better.

 

My thoughts exactly. I went with JLT because of the painted pipe. Even thought I have a black one.

 

I got the C&L Racer intake, it was like $50 cheaper than the C&L Street, plus a metal intake not a great idea out here in AZ !!! I am very happy with the fit and function of the Racer, plus if I ever get NOS or go with a Saleen SC it is the bigger intake, more flow helps.

JLT sounds good, I thought it was ugly looking, plus it was more at the time.


IMHO

 

I'd love to trade my Street for a Racer

 

I have the c+l racer and I like it.
Try brenspeed for cheaper prices though.

 

Get the cheaper one IMO, unless you really care about what your engine bay looks like. For the record, I don't think my JLT is ugly, it just looks like a CAI. I have the blue filter on mine with the black tube...

 

i got a c&l racer from bama for $609 shipped with diablo tuner and 3 tunes,check him out. when i got the box he actually sent me the street version cause he was out of the racer. i called him and asked out the diference in the 2 and he said it would not be noticeable with the mods i had.

 

I wouldnt go racer unless you plan on doing alot more engine breathing mods in the future. On on stock or near stock engine the C&L "street" actually outperforms the "racer". Ex: Cams. HEads,
