I have the Steeda. Very easy install. Definate power gain.

ok here it goes. I've had both the steeda cai w/predator tune and then sold it to buy the c&l w/ brenspeed tune. the difference is not even close. the brenspeed tune is by far the better. would i've gotten similar performance regardless of the cai? and just the different tune? maybe. But I can tell you don't make the same mistake i did. regardless of the cai i would get a tune with SCT, I prefer brenspeed but as long as you use SCT you'll be better off with your auto b/c of the shift firmness adjustment thet the predator doesn't offer. i prefer the look of the c&l and no the aluminum heat has not been an issue even on 90+ degree days. just my experience with both. try contacting brent at brenspeed he's real helpful good luck!

I have the C&L with Brenspeed tunes as well. They are great people and have great customer service

However, if I were you I'd also look at Doug @ Bamachips only because you have an automatic and several automatic owners have been happy with his tunes.
