I was actually looking at the same kit. I asked a few peeps about it and was told that at the moment Graneltelli is having issues with lots of units being returned. I have decided to hold off for now.

Any idea what the nature of the problems were ? I doubt they would still have on market if is was a POS, but who knows. G usually has a good rep though. thanks much

First mod i bought K&N. Easey instal, take your time, read the directions, save your old parts.http://www.lmperformance.com/6202/73.html

go with the JLT2 CAI. The Granetelli one has horrible problems. HORRIBLE!!!!

The K&N is nice, but the power gain isn't there.

JLT has been proven multiple times that they make the most power and is also one of the cheapest ones out there.

They sell for roughly $190

JLT is the only way to go!! I have it on mine with the SCT tuner and its awesome. You definately need to get the handheld tuner also, its a must. Check it out here http://www.jlttruecoldair.com/produc...year=2005-2006

JLT is the best out there....period!! I have it on mine wih the SCT tune and its awesome. You NEED the tuner when you install it. Call up Jay(owner/operator), he is very imformative and helpful, he'll be the one answering the phone. http://www.jlttruecoldair.com/produc...year=2005-2006

Get yourself the JLT or the C&L CAI with the combo of the SCT Tuner.

Highly recommend Doug @ Bamachips, the best for the 05+ Mustang tunning!

DO NOT GET THE GRANATELLI CAI. The Granatelli CAI is known to have problems later down the road with the MAF sensor mounting, causing problems and people going into fail safe mode!
