Default JLT Cold Air Intake vs Roush Intake

Hey guys,

I want a CAI to go along with my SCT Tuner, I don't want to spend too much cash (aka steeda and C&L). Do any of you have any experience with any of these intakes? How is the fitment and quality? Power increases? Any info would be appreciated, thanks.

the JLT its the best overall intake, IMO...I think for the money its a super good deal. They get good reviews...just sayin, I have one and when I added the tune with it the increase with very noticeable

I was leaning to the JLT, but the Roush is a little cheaper and Roush is pretty well known as well, any more info?

BTW, Cal your Mustang is ****in drop dead sexy

FYI, The Roush CAI is the same as the Airaid CAI. Airaid makes the Roush CAI. It maybe cheaper than the Roush CAI. ;-)

Bang for buck, JLT.

Roush is a decent intake though but the JLT is what folks more commonly run. I forget, does the Roush come with a heat shield? If it doesn't, def go with a JLT.

This. Unless you REALLY want a brand new one, get a used one, clean the filter and save $100 or more. I got my C @ L Racer intake for $200 and it was only used for 2,000 miles prior.
