Best Cold Air Intake for 2001 Ford Mustang GT?

King Justice · December 28th, 2007, 07:21 PM

Looks like I'll definitely be getting the JLT CAI system when I get the money.

I just ordered a K&N Air Filter though from AutoAnything for $50 so hopefully I can use it on the JLT CAI if a crappy air filter is included.

Thanks for the help everyone. I think I might just do a little messing around with it, though...see the difference between a quarter mile timing with a K&N CAI System and a JLT CAI System installed.

the JLT filter is a K&n I believe

i've got the non fender mounted mounted FIPk kit and my buddy has the JLT fender mount, cars run about the same time with similar mods. But if i did have to buy another Intake it would by the JLT

The stock one will work just as well with a drop in K&N and the silencer removed. IMHO CAI"s are a waste of money as far a performance goes.

You also won't make any more power.

HMUSN · December 29th, 2007, 06:30 PM

I have worked with Jay (JLT) at the dyno with several of his kits and they do make power.

I have a bbk but really think they are all a wast of money for the small gain if any. you can mod your stock one to do the same
