"This thing sounds awesome on my colorado!! It ROARS at WOT! It gives me a little better milage and I run lower RPM at crusing speed. I can feel better acceleration too so I know it gives a HP increase (how much I dont know). When you get on the gas, people know your colorado has something special under the hood for sure! Sound reminds me of a deep growl you hear on much bigger V8s. I installed with a buddy in about 30min. you may have to hold a radiator hose back to wedge the box into the stock location. Make sure you get it over the stud! If you over tighten stud, the cover may not lign up as well with the bolt holes. the vacumn line included was too short so i bought some at the local store for $1. I am gonna call volant to see if they will hook me up b/c their hose is premium grade silicone. Better than the others cause the filter wont get wet/muddy/dirty when you are offroading cause of the sealed box design. Good engineering overall. Better midrange torque. email ?'s to train22@ureach.com"

Overpriced and useless

"I received my intake system on 9/06/06 tried installing it. It didn't fit. I called Volant left countless messages went to their website it wouldn't come up. Finally talked to their "tech" and he said he would get back to me. I still haven't heard anything back yet. I will be returning this system and going with an AirRaid. Thanks for nothing Volant. If I could give a 1/4 star rating that's what it would be."

Volant Hardware Quality

"I was impressed with the quality of the hardware ,except for the box-to-fender seal. Instead of going the extra effort to make a circular foam seal,a length of foam seal was provided that you had to stuff on the box to form a circular seal. Imho a bit cheesy. Performance is great,sounds like a 4 barrel carb when you accelerate,but quiet at 70 mph.Milage APPEARS to have increased 2-3 mpg."

Cold Air Intake

"This is a good quality unit. Takes about 1 hour to install. Instructions are not quite adequate, so I went to an online Ford Forum for instructions and better pictures. Performance has increased slightly and the sound is awesome, reminds me of an old four barrel carb. No mileage improvement. If you want a unit that looks & sounds great this is it."

"Volant cold air intake system is over priced. Didn't make any gas mileage difference. Just gave me a bit more hp, torque, and made my exhaust sound a bit deeper. I also purchased the air scoop with it. (which is overpriced) I can see how it would help, but like i said i did gain a bit more hp and torque. Not worth paying over 200 for. Volant is overpriced."

Easiest Install I Have Done

0 of 0 people found the following review helpful.

"The installation was very easy on my 03 Avalanche…less than an hour with minimum tools. The system has produced a noticeable low-end throttle response and it appears to have increased the miles per gallon by one. The only negative is the resonance during mid to hard acceleration…very noticeable…more than I care for. Otherwise, I am pleased with the unit."

"I purchased this system for my 06 dodge 2500 cummins powered truck. the stock filter was pulling real close to red line on the filter minder at 1700 miles the volant is still pulling with no restriction. Directions were a little hazy, but installed unit looks and performs well. You will hear a distinct turbo whistle with this filter. Kevin"

Volant adds some Bam! to Ford F150 Supercrew

Posted on 08/22/2006 by Doug O. - 2004 Ford F150 (Atlanta,GA)

"Ok, so I broke down after reading some reviews off of this site and a couple of others about how great the Volant cold air intake is on a 2004 Ford F150. So I decided to give it a go. I picked up some detailed directions off of the fordtrucks.com web site. (BTW, you do not have to remove the electrical box like the directions mention; you just have to wiggle it.) The Volant kit made a bunch of noise and gave me a little more response off the pedal. I drove it for a few days and decided to purchase the Ram Air Scoop to allow more outside airflow into my 5.4 engine. Installation on the scoop took about an hour, and what a difference it made. If you are going to purchase one of these kits, you should definately consider the Ram Air Scoop. Installation was a snap and you can really tell the difference from 30-90mph. Also, the intake that Autoanything shipped to me was missing the oil breather tube and air filter gasket. I called Volant and they sent me the parts for free via 4 day ground. Volant shipped me the wrong gasket but did send me the oil tube. I'm still waiting on the gasket... I'm gonna upgrade the exhaust next. If you see me in your rear view mirror, please move to the right. -Doug, Atlanta"

"The volant intake system is a good fit in my 01 mustang GT, with the exception of one vacuum hose. I had to replace it with a hose two inches longer. I did not notice any great increase in power, but it does seem to run smoother. There might be slight increase in gas mileage. I am happy! AVP"

Excellent replacement from the stock straw intake

"Just had my exhaust taken out a week before I installed this Volant C.A.I. I installed a Magnaflow cat back 1 in 2 out (dual exhaust). That worked fine but after installing the C.A.I. it made a huge difference. You can really feel a change in the power. I'm really quite surprised at how much of a difference it made on the gas mileage also. It does however sound like a vibrating grumble when you step on it. I guess that is what you pay for when you modify the stock restrictors. It was a little pricy but over all I am satisfied with the product and figure it will pay itself off within the first year (from saving gas @ almost $3.00 a gallon). From then on you will be saving on gas and putting money in your pocket!!!!! Pick one up @ autoanything, they beat everyones price and I will definetly be calling them when the next modification is needed."

'06 Sierra 5.3L 4X4 Running E-85

Posted on 08/15/2006 by Jon W. (Mequon,WI)

"No improvement in gas mileage (in fact it's very easy to go through a tank if not carefull with my right foot). I've been watching the fuel gauge pretty closely since running E-85 for the past few months and I'm still only getting 13 mpg. Put the increase in power is absolutely worth it! After buying the truck in December and running it a few months I told my wife that the truck's a bit of a dog. I'd previously owned a '98 Chevy with the same motor (with 50 less housepower - but a 3.73 rearend) that was much more fun to drive. Passing and going up hills wasn't ever a problem. Now the GMC, just wasn't up to the hill by our house, when pulling into trafic and standing on the throttle it just didn't seem to want to get going (I'd planned on dropping into low in the future, if I really needed to get up that hill in traffic). NOT ANY MORE, after installing the new air intake, I fell like I'm driving a truck again! The factory intake was an amazing piece of design and I'm sure gave the moldmaker a few headacks, but why? To air starve the engine for better gas mileage? I try to keep my RPM's under 2000 when accelerating (still stand on it to get on the freeway). Because the first tank after the installation was gone after 250 miles, that's 11.3 mpg but alot of fun. Installation was pretty straight forward and took about 2 hours."
