If the jlt makes absolutey no difference then why does it require a tune to install it.Why not just through it on and be done?

Point out where I said that the stock airbox/filter will outflow the JLT first. When you can do that I may take the time to explain why.

The only way to improve it is to go bigger. But considering that the stock intake/airbox will support 750+hp it isn't going to be an issue for 99.9% of people.


OEM filters of the same size/material have been tested up to 750hp.


Smoothing wouldn't hurt, but it won't help unless someone is making big power though.


This won't hurt.


You mean "more prevalent". There is still a dramatic temperature effect while at speed.


The air on the back side of the radiator is hot, not cold.


The high temps don't even get close to going away at speed.


100% completely wrong. Open track cars produce incredible amounts of heat under the hood.


If anyone wasn't going to care it would be a drag racer. Very little heat soak.


Yes


Far, far more heat gets around that shield than you think. It may ultimately flow more than the Airraid, but that extra flow won't be needed in ANY NA application and 99.9% of boosted applications.


Wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong. This is not my opinion. This is fact based on real testing.



That's too bad. Until the customer base votes with their wallets for better product manufacturers will continue to churn out the same tired old stuff that doesn't work. And the less educated will be duped into buying it.

Ok right here u go.First off where is ur proof that the stock air box will support up to 750 hp, doubt that.And the comment about 99 percent wont notice the difference or care about.

I'm tired of the name calling and general attitude of condescension from a few members. Clean it up or you will be asked to leave.

Unless your in a hurry to order an aftermarket air intake I would suggest going to the track during an all Ford event or a local Test & Tune or Street Fights event and seeing what times the Mustangs are running with different air intakes and supporting mods.

The best way to determine if an aftermarket air intake gains or loses power with a 2015 Mustang would probably be for someone or some company to do a True Street style test with a 20 mile drive in traffic, make three back to back passes at the track with no cool down, opening the hood for any reason or making any other changes to the car. Some person or company could test the same car on the same day at the same track with a stock airbox and filter. Then test the car with the stock airbox, stock filter and a tune. Then test the car with the stock airbox, replacement K&N filter and a tune. Last they could test the car with different aftermarket air intakes with and without tunes. Of course the car would have to complete a 20 mile drive after each air intake or tune change and follow the same rules of three back to back passes with no cool down, opening the hood or any other changes. They could then use the average time of the three passes to determine which product was the most effective.

The answer is do what makes you happy with your $350-400. It's not the biggest loss of money in the world.

I will be buying one because I think it makes a difference along with a tune.

Do whatever you want, not what some angry forum member preaches as alleged fact.

For those of you that can think with anything besides emotion I would like to say this:

I don't sell CAI's, I will never sell CAI's, I have zero interest in it. I post this not so popular viewpoint to help you, the Mustang community. What else could I have for a motivation? In fact, here I am posting information based on exhaustive study that I did to solve IAT issues for myself personally.

If I were to know something was a bad idea should I simply not say anything because it is not popular? Or should I post up trying to fill the community in? I sure am catching a lot of flack for posting the TRUTH. If you guys would rather have me not say anything at all or simply lie so I can also tote the popular message you let me know.

I have nothing to gain from posting up my experience aside from knowing I tried to put a little good back out there. I could just as easily keep my mouth shut and watch droves of people flush their money down the toilet. I certainly wouldn't catch as much flack if I chose the latter..

I love you. Don't worry... keep doing what you do. I value what you have to say

Will Ford Racing come out with a CAI? I don't like the tuning part voiding the warranty on the engine for the aftermarket stuff.

Yea they grabbed it from the SEMA show. I'm not sure if it is available yet thou

You know if that seals to the hood and the front cut section is in contact with the inner fender that is a closed air box. If not then it is still sucking in some hot air at low speeds, at higher speeds the ram tube might supply enough cold air to keep the hot engine compartment air out of the filter. It all depends on how well it seals.

I installed the Airaid, and really the only reason I did it was to reduce the restriction of air flow, larger tube than stock, higher capacity filter, etc.. It may help to offset the altitude here in Colorado, lower O2 content per cubic foot and all.. or I could be smokin' crack...:headbonk:
