Default SCT Tuning Question

This is probably a stupid question... But the last time I was messing with my tuner, I seen that you could change the intake to JLT Cold Air. I recently did the Gotts mod and have a drop-in K&N. My questions is, would I benefit by switching the tuner to the JLT option?

No you likely wouldn't see any gains, its just an options because if you put an aftermarket intake on 04-08 it will run lean and sometimes throw a code unless it is tuned for it.

Will the Gotts cause it run lean? Enough to worry?

no the gotts mod well only change wide open throttle performance, when u change the entire intake system they sometimes relocate the maf sensor thats why they sometimes run lean,
