Default JLT Intake and Tune

I'm new to my truck, but not to modding vehicles. I just let go my 2007 Mustang GT with all the bolt ons to get my 2008 F150 King Ranch.

So far I had my AVIC Z2 put in with iPod, XM, Blue Tooth, backup camera, as well as my front windows blacked out at 15%. Next will be a trip to Line X and an intake.

As a rule of thumb with the stangs, the first thing to do is the CAI and tune. I saw that JLT made a kit for my truck. Does anyone have any experience with this kit, or what are my other options?

I run a volant intake. The JLT kit is a bit strange as it isnt a cold air kit, its a ram air kit, if you read the fine print on the website...It states that intake temps at cruising are raised by "just" 5 degree and "only" 25 degrees in stop and go traffic. Last time I checked, increasing charge temps are what we dont want.

If the JLT was all that they say it is every company would be making their own setup very similar to the one they make. I'll stick with the true CAI's such as AEM or AF1 over the JLT.

Can I see a pic of the Stang? How much did you sell it for?

one thing with JLT ram air is that you have to buy a tuner with the kit. Its not a bad price considering you get the ram air and tuner for $525.00
