Volant CAI review

Postby koolz71 [OP] » Nov 22 2011, 9:05pm

Well after talking to the great people over at volant. I really wanted to do a review on this great CAI system. Shipping was super fast. I ordered it on Thursday and it arrived today (not bad going from CA to OH) I ordered the CAI with the PowerCore filter. The PowerCore boast a 100,000 mile warranty, improved fuel economy, 10X more efficient than a cotton filter and its OE approved so it will not void your warranty. The Volant CAI with the PowerCore claimsan average HP gain of 5-10% and an increase in MPG from .5-2.0 To top everything off I even got the ram air scoop. So i will be adding to this Review in the next couple days of the install when the weather permits.

I look forward to the review, especially on the power core filter. I am interested in replacing my K&N oiled filter with one in my Aircharger from K&N.

In that case, why don't you contact GM- I promise to write a 5-star review, if they drop off a free 3500HD Denali with the Duramax at my door :D.
