By market share, CFM is the #1 choice.
The CFMs have lower emissions compared to the IAE. Over at the shop, the V2500s ,true to their PW heritage, generally have a lower estimated time to completion for most jobs.

I have heard that one has a better chance of lighting a CFM in cold weather compared to the IAE engine.
