    Since :SNSign: is the best. Can you guys post up some pictures of your JLT CAI's. I want one in True Blue, and yes it is only for looks, I show my car and don't race it. I expect a loss in performance. I want to see them either way. Thanks in advance for your help.

    Why are you expecting a loss in performance with a JLT CAI? You'll def. gain some power :shrug:

    Mines about half way down in this big thread about JLT. It's the RAI but I have the combo kit that includes the CAI too. The first picture is the RAI installed with the back the the filter box taken off so the filter just sets in there so I can use my shaker. The second just has the hose put to the filter but some just take it off on the MACH. I've now got the plate made for the MACH that goes with the kit. I can tell the difference in low end with this product.

    i believe it gave me like 1 or maybe 2hp, but i installed it at the same time as my TB and plenum so i felt a rather big gain with all 3 parts working together.
    Im really impressed with the way it looks, but i dont know if its really worth the money performance wise. :shrug:

    I can't say what it's like on the 4.6 2v GT's but on the 4.6 4V Mach I can really feel the difference. I haven't dyno'd since but I can tell going though the gears it really helped on the low end since I bark 4th at over 100mph on a regular basis now on a good cool day.
