Just installed the JLT CAI & SCT X2 Tune from DTP. Wow, I can't believe how faster my car is now. Installation was a quick 15-20 minutes, and didn't run into any problems at all. Everything is well made, fits perfectly, and even the 3/8" hos everybody's been complaining about seems to work perfectly (even though I bought another one just incase).

After starting the car, let it idle for a minute, rev it, HOLY CRAP! This thing revs so much quicker. Floored it through first, second comes alot quicker, barked 2nd, third comes quick, and the rear end shifts. darn, I was smiling the entire time. I finally let my friend drive it (he has a fast 93 GT coupe) , and he was laughing the entire time. We really didn't believe a CAI & Tune can make such an improvement on the car but boy, this thing is a monster now.

Thanks alot again Jay, you're a top notch salesman/painter/cai maker

By the way, one of the people that convinced me to get this CAI was Bryan Lester. He's the one that drove the fastest stock 05 GT down the 1/4 mile (13.3 @ 102). With just the CAI & Tune, he managed a 13.0 @ 105.

I must agree, you will NOT be disappointed.

It rocks!

(One down side to this, you may not be home as much as you used to be. )

Is there room for the JET throttle body spacer with the JLT CAI? Anyone have this setup? Any thoughts on the improvement from the TB spacer before and after assuming you already had the JLT installed. Just curious if it fits, and what difference it makes. Thanks.
