When I purchased the 2020 GT500 CFTP, it came with the JLT intake.

I would assume, ( I know, never assume) being I purchased it from a Ford dealer, the car does not have a tune.

Will the JLT hurt it with no tune?

No it won't hurt anything. Your not gaining much if anything from a cold air intake alone verse a stock intake. Ford really has the airborne on these cars dialed in. Not as pretty as a fancy CAI though.

No tune required and JLT advertises 25-30 hp increase without a tune.

I would not assume there is no tune just because it came from a Ford dealer though. It can be checked via key counts (dealer can do that) or if you have access to Forscan.

Congratulations on the GT500! You wont have any issues with the Cold Air on the GT500. Any other mods on the car? Any future plans with it? 2020+ GT500 platform is awesome

Congrats on your new ride Jim, great looking car. Are you going to do any tracks in July and which ones? If you are and if we are in the area will catch up. Will be in Chicago beginning of July and Jacksonville FL last fortnight of July and will try and catch up with Tom as well.

While true in most instances, the 2020+ GT500's actually get big gains from a JLT, without a tune.

Not sure if tracking in July yet, a friend in the Panhandle mentioned going to Barber (Alabama) track in July. Not sure I want to go anywhere in July.

I moved to Deland 8 weeks ago, am only about 25 minutes away from @Tomster , thus when you are in town, let us know and we will meet up.

Great pickup Commodore! Sorry to hear you moved though 😏
Wife wanted to be closer to daughter and grandson and we both missed Central Florida. We liked our time up there, but this area is our home.

Hopefully, we will run into each other again.
