From my understanding the only difference between the two is the air silecing tube. I removed this plastic tube and used a peice of rubber cut in an ovel to fit the hole left by the silencer and used The Right Stuff sealant and smoothed it out on the inside. A little water(spit) lets your finger glide over this stuff and make a smooth plug if you will. IMO on the Aluminum peice it can get heat soaked and cause a HP loss not much but hey a little adds up.

Don't waste your money on a 1LE elbow, unless your stock one is ripped or something. Just plug the hole in yours and abracadabra, you have yourself a 1LE elbow and your wallet is still the same weight. Use a piece of 2x4 wood and cut out the size of the plug and hose clamp it in. You could even paint the wood black if you'd like, like I did. You know anyone with a jigsaw or bandsaw?

The Vortech elbow is too long to be installed with the SLP CAI. At least that was my experience. Had to measure, tape a cut line, then had the local muffler shop saw cut to fit.

Dude, call Jason Cromer and order a 1LE elbow for like $45. I believe the part number is 25147210. He'll give you a good deal and wicked low shipping costs. Look on shoebox's sight to verify http://shbox.com/1/4th_gen_tech1.html. Good luck with the purchases
