I can get the tubing in fine. When I have the filter bolted onto the MAF, it wont fit. I cant even get it in.

Put in all together loose. Then put the filter nose in first and drop the rear end into place. You will have to force the rubber part around the TB a little, but it will work.

yeah....only way to get it in. Such a pain in the A$$, but worth it. That back rubber will give a lot more than the front, that's why I always just shove the nose of the filter in first and then the rear.

ya dude, JLT is a very tight fit! At least you have the ram intake though, the JLT true CAI was a bitch to put in the fender wall!!
