    Do you need to cut into the OE wire loom to hook the volant up or is it plug and play?

    I have seen that vid.. I just noticed AFE says they supply the wiring specifically so it makes it seem as though some may not..

    Ok so just installed my '13 Volant CAI. Didn't take too long at all, install was easy if you know a little about cars. The MAF sensor mounted up fine and all the hardware needed was included. Didn't have to drill or anything. The only problem I had was with the routing of the hose to the new air pump spot. The elbow connectors and hose extensions they give you make it to where you have to route the hose which pinches it a little bit. Also broke on of the rubber things that holds the pump to the intake box. Seems as though the pump doesn't sit quite far enough down for them all to fit flush. Had to trim a little bit and will get a new gasket thing on Monday from Toyota. All in all it went fairly smooth. The sound on the outside isn't much different from stock but on the inside when you give it some it sounds amazing. Waaaay better than before. No CEL so far although have only had it on a few hours. Will keep updating on any gas mileage changes or anything else I notice. It looks great when installed and overall I am happy with it.

    Ill try and get some sound clips tomorrow. I love it, sounds lower and more aggressive. Still no CEL. Only had it on for about 100 miles so far so I cant tell an MPG changes yet. Will average it out over the next few tanks to see.
