JLT CAI or RAI? Whats best for NA...

Im not lookin' to FI the motor anytime soon, its my daily grinder. But for a bit more power and for the money, would a CAI or RAI be best. Its an internally stock motor with the exception of exhaust and canned tune. I plan on doing some sort of stage 2 cam in the near future and wonder which one would be good. Ive always been a fan of keeping the filter outta the engine bay, but i notice the same gains out of the RAI. Also, i ask this question cause i dont wanna buy the RAI then down the road find out that the CAI would be a better choice to go with, and vice versa if i bought a CAI originally. Oh, and im wondering if in fact a JLT intake will lean out a motor that isnt tuned for that piece. Thanks...
