JLT Carbon Fiber CAI **$299** 5.7, 6.1 Charger, Magnum, Challenger, 300

JLT Performance Carbon Fiber Cold Air Intake for Dodge HEMI 5.7 and 6.1 Charger, Magnum, 300C and Challengers

We have been using JLT cold air kits for many years on the Mustangs and back in 2006 we asked them to work on one for the HEMI. It took them a little while to "see the light" for the Mopars, but they have developed a really nice carbon CAI and the performance outdoes most others, just like they are known for. See below for all the information!




From JLT ...

We are thrilled to finally branch out and include the Dodges in our line of Cold Air Intakes. We used the knowledge we gained from years of building induction kits for 94-09 Mustangs and Ford trucks and built a work of art for the HEMI cars.

We started from scratch building a huge Carbon Fiber intake tube that measures 4.5” on the filter side and a full 4” on the throttle body side. Unlike most kits that are only 3.5” on the throttle body side, our kit will adapt to the larger throttle bodies that are available.

The kit includes the Carbon Fiber JLT tube, smooth silicon reducer to the throttle body, silicon coupler to filter mount, clamps, Aluminum filter mount, HUGE 4.5 X 9” S&B Powerstack air filter and ABS plastic heat shield. We used materials like carbon fiber and ABS to resist engine heat and keep inlet air temps nice and low. Metal tubes and shields absorb heat and will transfer it to the incoming air. Why surround your filter in a metal shield? I never understood that.

In testing, we took a SRT 8 Charger with stock airbox and strapped it down to the dyno. The only mods on this car are removed cats and MSD coils and all else was stock. The car made great power stock with 376.74 RWHP and 371.49 RWTQ. We made 2 runs to be sure the numbers were correct.

Next we installed the full JLT CAI kit and allowed time for engine temps to come back down to the stock runs. With the JLT kit power made a nice jump to 395.87 RWHP and 387.69 RWTQ for a huge 19.13 RWHP and 16.2 RWTQ gain!!

We were lucky enough that the car’s owner had a previously installed Airaid CAI with the car, so might as well test it against the JLT right?

We then installed the Airaid complete kit and with proper cool down made another couple of runs netting in 392.44 RWHP and 387.77 RWTQ a loss of almost 3.5 RWHP over the JLT. What we noticed on the graph was that with the Airaid the HP and TQ fell off at 5750 RPM and the JLT kept pulling.

We then had another local shop do another test. This was a SRT8 300C and it also had the Airaid intake along with cam and a ported throttle body. Results were about the same with the JLT gaining 4 additional RWHP and 1-5 RWTQ over the Airaid intake ending at 420 RWHP and 420 RWTQ!

We also noticed that cold air intakes for the Dodges were priced very high for what you got. At JLT we don’t over price! Retail on this kit in real carbon fiber will be only $299.

Kits will be shipping in the next 3-4 weeks.

Sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet!

 

Here are some additional pics of the new CAI by JLT. Also, some dyno charts.

 

Very nice....that is awesome looking Carbon Quality!

 

This JLT is designed to also work with the 90mm throttle body and a 4" coupler can be provided for anyone needing it. If you need that coupler, just specify in the order comments section of your order.

 

I just got word from JLT that I should have these in 1.5-2 weeks at most.

 

We have 5 CAI on the way here from JLT tomorrow!! The first 5 pre-orders will be shipping first, so if you want one, please get you order in to get in line. We won't charge your card until your CAI ships!

 

Man I remember when JLT was starting out, people flipped a wig when they found out they had to tune for his CAI. Great work and always has been.

 

The first 4 orders are shipping today, and the 5th on Monday! (The rest will be in the next batch in a week or so.) JLT is going to drop ship these today for us, so you get them quicker! I'll email the UPS tracking # to each of you guys as soon as I have them.

 

Can you check your PMs?

 

You have a PM.

 

We should have another 3-4 early next week so if you have 1 on order, it won't be much longer!!

 

Here are a couple more pics of the intake installed on customer rides:
IMO the nicest Carbon Fiber finish I have seen yet!

 

That is a bad lookin CAI..:dancinlock:

 

Here are a few more customer pics!

Due to popular request, these JLT are now shipping with BLUE filters standard. If you want the red filter, please indicate that in the Order Comments section and we can still have that one sent, if desired.

 

Here is a pic of the JLT with now standard blue filter:

 

Once again the SRT Jeep is left with nothing, boo!!!

 

We have 3 carbon fiber JLT kits available to ship today! Get them while they are in stock ... they won't last long!
