I believe a couple of the intakes did come from evolution so if they were missin parts it kinda would be at fault since they should be checking them if its coming from them.

Why do some consider the JLT over the C&L?

^^^i was told you get slightly better gains and it was recommended by Fred..and i dont think he has anything to gain from recommending it since the C&L is actually more expensive...

and my JLT came with no parts missing...so not all have something missing

I guess the old adage "you get what you pay for" still holds true in many instances. What is the price difference?

it really isnt much its like 30-40 bucks difference. Its not like my intake is falling apart though. the company didnt send me all the parts. So its actually a good deal when you think about it. And you are suppose to get better gains.

Its a $40 3hp difference/gain. I dont really think the JLT is a crappy product in actuality its just the fit on the car and the fact that some of the orders didnt get all the parts...I could see where maybe 1 here may miss a part but ive talked to like 5 different people just on the 4.0 V6 section missing parts and thats just bad handling on JLT's part.

And i did forget to mention i am happy with the evolution tunes, i just havent been satisfied with trying to get ahold of him which i tried pry 3-4 times it usually takes a couple days just to get a response on something.

My JLT came with everything and i'm very pleased with Fred's tune, I also was going with C&L until Fred changed my mind but I like the look of the JLT better and wanted more performance anywho so he really talked me into what I really wanted anyways.

Everyone who installs the JLT seems to have a rattle where the breather unit doesn't fit right. Did you guys find this as well?

Ya but i figured it out last nite. If you put the filter on straight with the maf housing then it will touch the body and rattle. But if you angle the filter towards the front of the car then it shouldnt touch the body, thats how i got mine to stop rattling.
