JLT CAI. BBK CAI and a Kenne Bell
Despite what you may have heard and what I myself believed to be true, neither a JLT CAI nor a BBK CAIwill NOT fit on a KB equipped 99+ GT!!!
The tube exiting the TBwill not clear between the strut/spring tower and the engine due to the fact that KB intheir allmighty money grubbing wisdom decided to extend the intake/TB out about 4 inches towards the passenger side so only THEIR "big tube" and CAI kit will fit. The factory tube does fit though it's pretty tight.
I'm pissed because I alreadyhad the JLT CAI sprayedto match my exterior paint and can't return it. Oh well, I guess I'll try tosell iton E-Bay along with the BBK CAI, PI intake, C&L upper plenum and the rest of the parts I pulled off the car.
Don't mind me, I'm just pissed because now I have to buy KB's intake and have the chip I've already payed them for reprogrammed for the 90mm MAF.
EDIT: Here is thein-house link to theParts for Sale forum I have the CAI's listed.https://mustangforums.com/m_2655150/tm.htm

Who runs their air filter under the hood anymore ?
Acutally, I would put money on it that it doesnt make a differnce, but the vortech kit does locate it way down in the fender/bumper. I never have bought the whole thing with the air under the hood being all that much hotter though. I can see it on a dyno (with no fan) but in the real world with all that air moving thru it...
And it does suck that they set it up so all you can use is their setup. Its just like microsoft making you buy anothe 200 bucks in accessories to really use their 400 dollar xbox 360 (or playstation 3 doing the same thing). Its all about the dollar.

RE: JLT CAI. BBK CAI and a Kenne Bell
What is the price difference between the KB CAI and the JLT? I'd be pissed too if I had spent the money on the JLT and the painting and found out I couldn't use it. You could sell the JLT and use that money to offset the price of the KB. How much do you lack on your install?
