Volant Cold Air Intakes??????

Hey Does Anyone Know Much About This brand? I really like the look just dont know how the fit and finish is when installing is it good quality? Also going for the ram air tube that goes to the grill as well any help would be great guys!

 

Bump because i need help anyone out there earth to tw!

 

Well just go with the rest of the world, don't waste your money just buy the damn afe pro dry s filter. Not worth spending that much money imho

I Dont Like The Afe Because it is not inclosed box!

 

i think he is just talking about the drop in in the stock intake. Also isnt the only spot not boxed the very bottom of the intake, whats with that?

 

Thanks man i think i am going with this hole set up got to try and save on gas money in vegas 91 oct is 3.08 its kicking my ass that and a tonnaeu cover will hopefully help!

 

I Dont think so the volant is 100% inclosed and goes to the fender hole and also has the ram air tube hole for fresh air fron the front of the grill that will help i think!

 

Threads all opver the place about this. Very few aftermarket cai actually help if not they make things worse. And yes thanks ktmrider I was talking about drop in filter

 

I Have The k&n filter just think that the intake will help!

 

I have the Volant intake with the ram air.
It gets pricey. I upgraded the filter to a dry one for $50 from URD. I still need to buy the Mass Air Flow Calibrator to get good power from it. so that's another $250. I also have a CEL for my MAF sensor and I think its because of my intake

 

he's done alot to his engine for power management. He probalby gets more out of his intake becasue it compliments all the other upgrades. like the headers, exaust cams and new ECU.

 

ya good point david, totally forgot about that! to get the real benefits from intakes and exhaust mods you also need to take into account that with more air going through the system the fuel addition will be off. then your gonna have to spend 250+ for the calibrator!

 

Sockmonkey has one. PM him and ask him about it.

 

Anyone have a current review on the Volant CAI with scoop? Incresed performance? Gas mileage? Other mods suggested besides MAF sensor?

I have a 2013 Taco TX and am looking to spend some money.

 

I love mine i have the scoop and the 100k mi dry filter never needs cleaning but if it does i will blow it out with air compressor. I am glad I have it, it makes better sound. I have the dash dyno gauge reader and air intake temp went from temp being ten degrees hotter than the mirror temp to exactly what the outside temp is. So a decrease of ten degrees cooler air going into the engine. This was seen from temps of 90° all the way down to today at 23° it is always the exact temp as the outside. It took me from 18 mpg to 21 mpg then I put the TRD exhaust on and it went back to 20 mpg. I feel a mild increase in power not enough to note I would say it accelerates quicker it the top end of the rpm range. Makes my engine bay look bad ass!

Any questions feel free to pm and I will try to post pics over the weekend.

 

Don't have the Volant intake but I do have the Volant Air scoop for my AFE CAI Stage 2 SI. Love it All setup for the maf calibrator and TRD blower down the down road

 

So not seeing too much on this CAI on TW, so I thought I would update this thread. I installed mine last night. Instructions blow, basically just went off commonsense, because their's are horrible. A lot left to guess. It took me 2 hours to install, 30 minutes of that was wrestling with the air filter to get in mounted in the CAI box. Finally just used a bit of WD40 on my finger and placed it around the edge of the filter on the rubber. It finally went on. The MAS Air Sensor doesn't seat well on the tube from the box to the engine intake. Not seeing a huge gain in HP, but my acceleration is up at 3500 RPM and higher. I have a TRD Cat Back Exhaust. This is a pricey quick MOD, as of now I am not sure it was worth it. Will get back to you
