RE: Air Intake For 06 GT
JLT Boasts a whopping 28-34 RWHP with their Tune and CAI I just recieved mine in the mail yesterday and have to wait until Saturday to install. I purchased a tuner/CAI combo right off of http://www.jlttruecoldair.com/index.php I'll let you all know how much of a difference it is on Saturday.

Sounds good. I'm going with Steeda's cold air intake/SCT2.

Just out of curiousity.
what are the HP gains on the CAI + TUne VS just CAI like the K&N.

My Base Line HP Stock was 254.3 I don't remember the torque numbers

now that's some good gains.
Looks like CAI + Tune is the route I'll be takin then.
I appreciate your help

The tune makes all the difference, plus you will not be running your engine to lean and damage it like I did...
I am waiting on the verdict on if I need a new motor or not, I ran lean 18+ for over 600 miles with no CEL or fail safe
went to a dyno day sponsored by local mustang club and the dyno showed super lean and I may have damaged the motor
so ask around and find a tuner that people trust on the net or better yet get a dyno tune to be super safe

RE: Air Intake For 06 GT
Well I did the install of my JLT2 and used my XCAL-SCT2 Custom tune from JLT and I have to say that I cannot beleive the difference. Easy to install, the tuner is easy to operate. I only had one minor issue, when I first installed it and did the tune took her out for a test drive and ran great. Woke up the next morning went to the grocery store and noticed check engine light on, so I drove back home plugged the tuner in and it gave me 0171 Error code: System too lean so I re-inspected the intake and noticed that the filter was not fully seated around alluminum tube, part of the MAF sensor was in the way so I re-seated it but still had alarm so I re-flashed it with a %2.0 Rich WOT and walla it cleared the 0171. I urge anyone that is on the edge of purchasing a CAI to go for it as far as the Tuner I can't beleive that I was actually thinking of not getting one and just going with the K&N. Anyhow just my review of my new JLT-2 CAI and SCT-Xcal2 tune. I still need to check out all the features of the XCAL2 I know it has data logging and all sorts of stuff.

RE: Air Intake For 06 GT
Has anyone gone the route of just getting a good tune, minus the cai application? I've gotten mine done from a reputable tune shop thats been mentioned on these forums and have gained similar results of those that have a cai?
Actually gain was an extra 20 hp, 34 tq with stock air filter.

RE: Air Intake For 06 GT
stupid question, but i'll ask anyway.
are there any Canadian distributors of these JLT products? They seem to be highly recomended here in general for Cold Air intakes
Or is the K&N just as good with a tune?
