I noticed this as well. BUT the difference in HP is at 2 different RPM leves. 9 at 5200 and I think the other one is 15 at 6.

Does that make a big difference? Which actually is better???

That looks like azz. If I were getting a metal one, I'd get the MRT.

I'm surprised: Lots of others look better than that. For a "piped" cai, I'd rather have the JLT in color or the MRT in aluminum... I happen to have the WMS: No pipe...

The craftsmanship looks terrible, I'd go with the aircharger as well. My aircharger is awesome!
