Evolution Performance CAI questions - 5/6/2008 1:17:45 PM    The Potato Posts: 337 Joined: 10/26/2007 Status: offline Evo Performance sells 2 brands of CAI (C&L and JLT). The JLT one costs less than the C&L. I asked Evolution Performance why that is, even though they both produce the same hp and torque numbers. They replied saying that the JLT costs less because it is made out of plastic.   Are there any other differences between the two? Thanks.   _____________________________ 2008 v6 Vista Blue Post #: 1

VERY happy with my C&L . _____________________________ :: 06 4.0 Stang :: Auto :: 3.73/T-Lok :: Bama Tuned :: C&L Intake :: :: JBA H-Pipe Dual Exhaust :: 17" Bullitts :: F/R GT Anti-Sway Bars :: (in reply to basketballord) Post #: 4

Is it me or does the C&L intake look like it can take in more air because of it's design? _____________________________ 2008 v6 Vista Blue (in reply to Sancho805) Post #: 5

At the time, doing research the same way you were (asking around), I heard it was the best intake to get over the rest of them there. I still believe it's the best performing and best looking (matches the metallic silver on my car). I have no numbers to prove any of it, but I just have the numerous amounts of people I remember that said it was the one to get. _____________________________ 07 4.0L V6 Perf.
