Default RE: Warning Steeda Carbon Fiber Inlet Tube

I just got off the phone with Steeda and they want some pictures. I'll post an update soon as I get an answer.

I suppose thats one reason Ford uses the bendy rubber type tube??

Another reason is that, being flexible, it doesn't rub against the hood liner every time you go wot (lots of folks have that problem with their stiff C & L and JLT CAI's).

Are you sporting the Bullitt badges on your Tungsten??


Nah, I'd feel like a poser with fake badges- but I love the clean look, and had it 16 months before the Bullitt came out.

p.s. also have the same FRPP package as the Bullitt (but not the stiffer suspension, cause
it's not suited to the lousy roads we've got here in NJ).

Just great!! I literally ordered the Carbon Steeda 2 nights ago and am waiting for it to arrive. Hopefully this is an isolated incedent. I went with Carbon since all my motorcycles I had always gone with carbon replacement parts and exhausts on all of them. I cant imagine the heat of the motor affecting carbon more than the exhaust of my motorcycle, but I guess anything is possible. Let us know how it goes man!!!

So the inlet that comes with the JLT2 is a POS as well?

Just got off the phone with steeda and they did say it looked like the clamp was on to tight like I figured they would. They also said they will ship me out another one soon as they get them in stock. So I'm impressed with steeda's support and look foward to buying other parts from them.

Well that makes me feel a lot better!!! I am still waiting for mine to come in, but at least I know that they will stand behind it if I have the same issues! Peace of Mind is a wonderful thing!!
