But isnt that better than the gains on the C&L Intake? Cause on your website it says you only made an extra 6WHP, is this true or am I misunderstanding something?

So before this you were stock? The 189RWHP was stock? Then you add a CAI and a SCT X-Cal2 and only picked up 9RWHP???

RE: Test mule For JLT CAI results.
+1 scrming.
Most have seen (or at least state) 20-25hp gains with a CAI and tune. The stock number looks kind of high, but I understand that's what the machine recorded. The number with the mods looks okay. That would equate to approximately 233 under the hood, which is a reasonable expectation.
By the way, has anyone dyno'd an 06 auto with single axle back, CAI and tune? If you did, what kind of numbers did you get? I'm planning to get mine on a dyno just to see what my car is making, but if anyone has already done this your info would be appreciated.
Thanks.

RE: Test mule For JLT CAI results.
No problem!!!
Ok, I have to wonder and no offense to the tuners that work for the manufacturers. Most of us are comparing this to a C&L, a C&L from Doug, Justin, Evolution, Lideo, Brenspeed, etc. But have you ever bought a CAI with a tune from the manufacturer? I have and the gains were not the same as a tune from a professional tuner. I think manufacturer tunes are much more conservative, so it ensures their parts don't come back or have issues with customer cars.
I've seen the JLT and its a sweet piece of equipment. I'm sure once Fred, Justin, Doug or Lideo get thier hands on one, we will see even more gains. Also, he's got some pretty good TQ with this setup. That is what my original post was in response to. Also, most of us that have gotten dyno tuned with a CAI/tune had an axleback of some sort.

+1 I really would like to see the gains with a tune from one of the tuners mention, I also would like to see the numbers on that new intake by WMS is it out yet? BTW rygen do you have any sway bars? If so, which ones?

RE: Test mule For JLT CAI results.
scrming,
I'm sorry to ask, But should I have expected more HP/TQ gains? I mean my car was BONE STOCK all around.
I thought almost 10 hp rwhp was pretty good just by changing the tune and the airbox, I was impressed with
the whole setup, is there another CAI that offers more?

RE: Test mule For JLT CAI results.
Tim, thanks for coming down for the test, it was nice to meet you.
As said before we did some testing a few months back with results in the 6-8 HP range as most of the tuner kits out now are giving, but we know there was more to be had.
So we used the JLT MAF from the GT and a 75mm pipe and gained 4-5 HP and up to 10 TQ!
If you look at the graph in the first post you will see there was much higher TQ gains in the lower RPM's which is where you will feel it and use it.
Thanks again Tim and we hope to have these ready in the next few weeks and the price will be the lowest out there!!
