During the process of venting crankcase pressure back through your intake track, large amounts of oil, in the form of vapors, intake tube, intake manifold runners and even dilute your gas, lowering its octane level. This happens on all engines and is even worse with forced inducted vehicles (supercharged and turbocharged) as crankcase pressures are increased. To combat this, we have developed an oil separator of our own design. Milled from solid billet aluminum this is a rock-solid piece. It has a knurled tank base for easy removal to drain the spent oil and an O-ring seal to prevent any leaks. Filtering consists of a fine mesh stainless steel screen that traps fine oil vapors and releases them once heavy enough to fall. They then pass through a 1/2" thick 1/16th" aluminum honeycomb filter where they grow every larger and then fall into the bottom. By the time the oil gets through the filter it's too heavy to be passed on into the intake. The tank holds 3 oz of fluid, while that may not sound like a lot, you shouldn’t see that much oil in your PCV system. Drain it every 2000-3000 miles and you will never come close to filling it. Our kits are easy install, service and flat out work! Many kits use OEM hoses or come complete with all hoses, custom brackets and hardware for an OEM look. Retain stock hose if you ever return to stock.
JLT Performance began in 2003 when the founder, Jay Tucker, became frustrated at trying to find a good cold air intake for a 1999 Saleen Mustang that was one of his project cars. After being frustrated with other vendors, he just sat down and built his own cold air intake. It worked beautifully on that 1999 Saleen Mustang, and JLT Performance's story began. Tucker's next project car was a 2003 Mustang Cobra, and another JLT Performance cold air intake was created. This time, Tucker posted pictures and results on Mustang forums and received an overwhelming response. Thinking that if he sold more of his first JLT Performance cold air intakes he could turn the profits around and invest them back into the Cobra, he got busy making his first cold air intakes as the business got its start.
