"We test the airaid with the insert out.

As for the JLT, it did VERY well low end, it stood out quite a bit from the rest. Peak (top end), it was about the same as the Steeda and C&L. The airaid was only slightly ahead of the pack top end (peak), not enough to brag about.. maybe 1-3 hp. However, the mid-range the air-aid walked on the rest of the competition in regards to torque.

The Airaid and JLT came out on top in multiple tests."

JLT is definately the best intake, and the only that fits the boss manifold too

Yeah. I noticed it on vettes I drove...still haven't gotten it to kick in on the stang. Might be that I havent really driven in traffic yet...plus with 3.73s, I think I get out of the lock rev range pretty quickly.

Installed Airaid CAI and Bama 93 Race tune - Ford Mustang Forums
JLT makes good stuff. I'd also recommend getting the JLT Oil Separator.

I think they did make some revisions to the skip shift for the 2012 cars, but it's still a good thing to get rid of.
