All installed. Everything good quality however fitment of the CAI was a little interesting. Triple checked throttle body clocking and looked proper. Had to completely take apart the CAI and then force it together. No hood flex and everything appears to be where it’s supposed to. Out driving now with only smiles to be had. Sounds amazing!! Little more pick up and like others have said, it’s all about the throttle response. Overall super happy.
How was fitment with the JLT catch can?

Not the best but I kept it on there. It rests on the electrical connector for the throttle body so far from ideal. Figured I’d give it a day of commuting and see what it looks like and maybe just got back to the stock line without catch can.

Let us know if you decide to change back!

I just had mine installed on my 2021 at Ford. JLT catch can sits tubes sit 1/4 - 3/8" from the electrical connection of the throttle body. Not sure if the tech heated and gently bent them, but nothing is touching. He also didn't trim the engine cover and there are no pinches or clearance issues whatsoever.

Overall I'm extremely happy with both the installation and performance. I have a base 6MT and the difference was immediately noticeable. The low end torque makes the car much more enjoyable. Honestly this is the way it should have been from the factory.

I can’t see how any reversal and/or clocking of the lines will get the JLT catch can to work without rubbing on something. Removed it and put factory line back in place. Not convinced it did anything worth while anyway.

Oh ok. You take the long hose and reverse on the can with the short hose, with the nuts on the can.

You're right though, it is close to that thick wire harness, i added heat tape around that area though...better though than being so close to throttle body

After a week of commuting 78 miles a day, I have found a solid +1mpg. Shifts (MT-82) are smoother across the board. Even when not full sending there are a ton less issues. Sound is just freaking amazing, I mean it always was but it’s somehow better…smoother. Agree fully with what others have said, the car should have come this way.

Mine has a gargle/slight pop when shifting at 3500rpm + or so. It’s awesome!

Yep! And shifting above 4500 rewards me with some nice pops and burbles too.
