C&L vs JLT CAI

[billy_tripper]

I checked on a price on the X-2 tuner with both the C&L CAI and the JLT. The JLT was $200 cheaper, but I was told that they both produce very similar numbers. What is the big difference that makes these so much different in cost?
Thanks for any help,
Dustin

Also, I would like to see what you guys would go with between the two.

I think it's just build material. The C&L is cast aluminum with a more intricate heat shield while the JLT looks to be thin plastic with a smaller heat shield.

Having said that though, it seems the JLT does the job quite nicely and thats the one I'll be getting.

That's what I thought. Thanks for the help. :SNSign:

I can vouch that the JLT is not thin plastic at all. i've got it and it's thick walled PVC piping. Works very well and doesn't hold the heat like the C&L. (I've been to the drag strip with someone who has the C&L and that thing stays hot). I'm actually thinking of upgrading my 1st series JLT to the new one that's been released just cause I love the look of the new one.
