Looking at the two, at least from Brenspeed, the JLT combo with the tuner is $125 cheaper than C&L. I read that one article a while ago about performance comparisons and the C&L won over I believe. My question is: Is the C&L $125 better than the JLT?
absolutely and brent at brenspeed will tell you that. its a better all around quality piece and the tunes turn out hotter per se. jmho c&l is the ticket for these new cars everybody else just imitates
They're both just as good, and it's been proven and proven again too many times at tracks all over the place. The C&L is just more expensive due to it's cast aluminum material vs. the JLT's plastic construction w/ billet maf housing.
+1
JLT is a painted tube of PVC plastic vs. C+L cast aluminum.
Better durability for the metal however metal will also get hotter. C+L also offers a "true racer" option that has a pipe that is plastic for less heat transfer.
V8Power.com has them. $269 for CAI kit.
