Vararam makes big claims of out-performing all the others.
 I had a CAI Inc on my 1LT and had no complaints, but no significant difference in performance either (I guess that might be considered a complaint). My gas mileage did not improve as they claimed it would. I've only had the SS a few days and have only looked a Vararam, so far.

I have a G5CR, I like the looks of it. It didn't throw any codes to the cars computer. I've heard some of the intakes create error codes in the cars computer. The install was super easy and the intake is very high quality.
