JLT intake and Xcal 2 installed ;o)

My JLT CAI and tuner should be here tommorow or Tuesday. I am glad to hear that so satisfied! I can hardly wait to get it installed.

Next will be Bassani axle backs.

Believe it or not, it will get better again in a couple days. When I reflashed mine, the first time I drove it, I was pretty impressed. A couple days later, I hit it and it was like a different car. It was like the ECM had to settle down and learn all the settings. I've had zero problems, and lots of fun with mine.


Oh, and welcome to the forum!

Help!

Received my JLT CAI and SCT tuner today. The CAI install was a breeze, and does it ever look great! Really sets off the engine bay.


However, being old school (tuning to me means changing jets, rotating distributors, etc) the SCT sure lacks directions. I was under the impression (albiet incorrectly) that JLT provided tunes specifically for maximum performance with their CAI. Nothing could be found. I was able to change the intake selection from stock to JLT, tune to 93 octane and reflash with those changes. No CEL, car runs fine, no detonation, so I guess I'm OK for now.

Any suggestions or advise would be greatly appreciated.

The only minor complaints I had with the JLT was that the supplied heat shield came a little close to touching the corner of the cylinder head and that I would have liked a little more length left on the big rubber elbow on the engine side.

oh, and until I wiped the oil off the inside of the filter neck, I had a miserable time trying to clamp it on.

These are minor things, and I am very happy with it. And I haven't even stepped up to the 93 tune yet! I did fab up a second heat shield for the radiator side and notched the supplied shield....mostly because i was bored one Saturday.

I got mine direct from JLT. Intake, color matched to car, with tuner and three tunes, $600 delivered. They are currently running a special, check out this thread:

The tuners are only good for one vehicle. When you program your vehicle, it downloads your factory tune along with the vehicle VIN for an identifier. You can reset your vehicle to factory, then program your buddies, but you probably don't like him that much!:smoke:

LOL..you are right! thanks for the link. So ...since I have installed Pypes X pipe with no cats....does this tuner not "tune" my car now?
