JLT S550 V6 CAI

You said that 2 weeks ago. What happened? You said on the 9th the mold was being shipped for testing.
I guess I'll be buying something else.

The mold was being shipped to the folks that then inject the material in it to make the tubes. I wish I could rush this process along but we're at the mercy of their schedules.

Does it look like it will be ready to purchase by the end of the month?

I have emailed for another follow up today, once I get a reply I will update you with a better eta.

I just heard from JLT another 4-5 weeks away from production.

Dang. I mean it's not that complicated, just a plastic pipe

LOL. Don't you think if we could speed up this process we would? There's nothing fast about the mold process and all of the behind the scene work that goes into production parts. Would you rather it be rushed into an inferior product? We don't.

There are a few other options available if you feel this is inconveniencing your car build this much.

Inferior, are you serious?? It's not like headers or anything remotely complicated. There is a reason other companies have theirs out already. I would argue that whether it's JLT or Air aid or KN, they are pretty much going to sound the same and yield the same hp in the upper RPM range

So, what's stopping you from buying airaid or knn intake?

 

[maximized98]

I am not buying any of them. I cannot justify the money spent for like 6 hp in the upper RPM range

Yes and I'm sure they started there process before we did on July 2nd 2015 in this post.

How much do you know about the Roto-molding plastic business? It's not even comparable to Jig welded headers.

Thanks for stirring the pot :headbonk:

If nothing else, a CAI like this is worth the sound.

I know someone here in Houston that does rotational moldings, it's not that complicated. It is your fault that you guys started so late. How hard is it to go down to the local dealer and borrow a mustang? Companies do it all the time. I would blame JLT for waiting so long to start the process. Yes I am a CPSS.

Should have the tube next week, it shipped two days ago from CA.
