Thumbs up

Man - I'm getting very impatient. I want to put on my JLT CAI. It's been sitting in my garage for a least two weeks now. It's just way too tempting to put it on. :bang:

Any light at the end of the tunnel?

Great idea but is that not for WOT only? I would think that part throttle has another loop and something to do with air meter and fuel curves? If true it seems it would require special software that the tuners have to correct both.

Yeah I would assume so. The predator only looks like it adjusts WOT Fuel.
Fuel Table 2-4 RPM
Fuel Table 4-7 RPM

I'm a little worried about changing the a/f mixutre without a guage.

Does anyone have a custom tune for the JLT?

Sorry guys, but it's out of my hands.
I'm pushing the guys at DTP to get it done soon. I will work on them tomorrow.

Again, Do Not install with out a tune unless your on the dyno and can make adjustments.

You guys could also buy a wide-band and tune your car anytime you want. This is the way to go if you are going to add mods one by one, instead of installing a bunch at a time and dyno tuning.

While everyone is waiting on a tune why don't you fix the defect in your cold air system by adding a boss for the MAP to sit on?
You should care enough for your product to fix it. I have your system so I feel free to tell the truth. Everyone agrees your system works great but for one thing. You refuse to see it that way.
Do your tuners have a Mustang test car? I can't fathom what is taking so long in this area?

Your kidding me right???

I "refuse" to fix what?
All kits are going out with the fittings permantly glued in and even with this not being done there are no more CEL issues due to the MAF. I thought we all went over this and resolved the issue.

Please explain what you would like me to do for you specific. I would like to know.

Truth be told there are near 50 2005 GT kits out there with NO issues and a hand full or people here who have them. Those who had the CEL seem to have fixed it.

What's taking so long?? Well, let's see. I am running my own buisness with nearly 15 differant lines of CAI. I'm doing this with one man, my self! I order parts, build them, paint them, take orders, answer questions, ship them and much more.

The guys at the dyno shop are running a buisness too, there 2 people running a full speed/dyno/tuning/parts install shop.

I'm sorry we both got very busy in the last few weeks and haven't got this done. I do offer SCT and am trying to offer Diablo.
WHO offers BOTH?? I'm doing the best I can, my friend.

For those waiting on the Diablo, it should be ready shortly. One thing I did find out is it will be a little more dificult then the SCT. You will need to upload your stock tune and send it in for adjustment to the new JLT tune.
I will have full details as soon as I get them.

It would really be cool to offer both. My experience is that every tuner downplays or insults the other ( the one that they do not use), but to offer both would be great. My only concern is that one or the other would treat you bad for offering the other. In your case, the Diablo.

Your right, but...
It's DTP that is the dealer for both and both manufacturs know this.

SCT actually has a SCT "exclucive" program. You agree to only carry there product and you get a better price.

Offering both is better for everyone in my opnion.

Jay there is nothing you can do for me now. I will go make a boss and go to a custom tuner myself. Your time is up. I don't guess it ever dawned on you to hire some help rather than complain about all your problems. I am going to make another improvement modification to your system and will not burden you down with the facts.
By the way guys if you plan to add dry nitrous to your setup this is the system to use. Just thread a hole for the nozzle in the plastic tube. You can remove the whole system in about twenty minutes and the dealer will never know.
