Just a piece of advice....If you need tyo retune your car after a mod, make sure you install the mod in a place you can leave your car for a while.
At work might not be the best place to run into some problems.
I prefer to deal with all of my tuning at home, or on the dyno. You never know what kind of issues you will run into.
I didn't mean to come off as an @$$, but I figured, you've got to do a bit of research to even know about a JLT intake, so I thought for sure you'd know that you needed the tune.
Now, enjoy the intake for now, and start saving up for a blower!

got to take her out on the road and gave it some gas and she roars
can't wait to change it to 91 octane, still have 1/4 tank of 87. well my lessons learned were: NOT DO THIS SH*T AT WORK!!! if i had more time i would have noticed the problem instead of rushing. but live and learn i guess. but now i'm very pleased with the results i even get a nice little rumble from my exhaust. thanks again everyone

Stoenr,
Here's what I added to the edges of my heat shield,top & bottom where it rides against body, lines, etc.
I used windshield washer tubing & slit it along 1 side, just pressed it on. The heat shield was wearing into my hood liner.
You can also see where I put a small piece of foam weatherstrip on the end of the filter, as it was rubbing on inside of hood.
