Description
The rocket scientists at Volant have outdone themselves with this one. The Volant Cold Air Intake System lets your engine breathe huge gulps of cool, power-producing air for a massive performance boost. Increases of up to 18 horsepower, 40 ft/lbs of torque and even bolstered MPG are yours with Volant.
The Hi-Flow Velocity Air Box breathes in oodles of performance-enhancing air via the massive air duct. Many Volant Cold Air Intakes also include an enclosed air box that takes power and efficiency higher. Some drivers even report an increase in gas mileage by 1 to 2 miles per gallon. What's more, it can take less than an hour using standard household tools to replace the old, suffocating factory air box.
Best yet, Volant gives most vehicles a performance filter choice: the original high-performance cotton-gauze filter with cleaning intervals of 35,000-50,000 miles, or the oil-free PowerCore® air filter, requiring maintenance after a whopping 100,000 miles.
Thanks to the Magnuson Moss Warranty Act: US Code – Title 15, Chapter 50, Sections 2301-2312, your vehicle’s factory warranty is protected by law when you add aftermarket parts. Details

BA cai for a 2006 Chevy 1500 hd
Reviewed by Kellin S (BISMARCK, ND) Reviewed for a 2006 Chevy Silverado — May 10, 2013 5:16 AM
I've been looking at these for a while and finally broke down and bought one. I was super jacked when I got it. It looks awesome and is a breeze to install. I notice a little better shifting and about one or two more hp. Gas mileage hasn't changed yet but I'm sure it will. I've only had it a week. Only cons I have about it is that the gaskets are a little cheesy and I have to cut a little bit of my fan guard.
Great Look
Reviewed by Robert C (Massapequa Park, NY) Reviewed for a 2012 Dodge Challenger — May 07, 2013 12:52 PM
I had contacted Volant regarding instructions for installation and they quickly emailed them to me. In this world of the internet and the ease of making a video of an installation it is one of my suggestions. There were no instructions in the box.Now problems removing the sensor from the original was tight but achieved without damage. The wiring needs to be unraveled to reach the new location on the Volant, and the coolant overflow needed to be loosened to allow installation .

Volant Cold Air Intakes make my truck sound great
Reviewed by Alex B (DACULA, GA) — May 02, 2013 9:18 PM
I recently installed a volant cold air intake into my 2002 Ford Ranger. The installation was simple enough, though the smaller tubing I received wasn't quite long enough so I needed an extension tube. Other than that it was simple. My truck has a mid-low deep sound accelerating from second to third gear, fourth and fifth gear kinda sound mid-high pitch sound and kind of whines. I really like second and third gear though because thats mainly what i drive around in anyways because of where I live.

Answers (1)
Staff Answer
Answered by Nathan S. — Apr 08, 2013 9:41 AM
Hi, The Volant intake for the Pathfinder is not CARB certified and won't be emissions legal in Washington. There's no silver bullet part to radically increase mileage, otherwise the factory would install it to begin with and use it as a selling point. The accessories that do help tend to have side effect (usually added noise from a cat back etc.) that might not appeal to the average new car buyer who like their new cars to be dead quiet. An intake will increase mileage and as a side effect, will sacrifice a bit of noise control to do it. Also, the same intake has to potential to reduce mileage as it out-flows a stock intake. More air in the engine = more fuel sprayed in to keep the 14.7:1 air/fuel ratio. Now cruising with a light foot is a different story because engine load is low. It's with the throttle slightly open where you'll see fuel economy gains because the engine is working less to draw in just enough air to fill the cylinders to maintain freeway speed. Sorry to say it, but ya, it does depend on your driving style.

Hello. CAIs do not require the use of a programmer; however, an engine trouble code could pop up under different circumstances depending on other modifications you’ve made to the truck. If you order for the correct year/make/model, you will not see a problem. For information that is more definitive, you can contact Volant via their website. Thank you.

In many cases, cold air intake manufactures will not develop a product if they feel that the factory intake does the job well and they cant do much to approve upon the design. I would be disappointed if my brand new intake system didnt provide a noticeable increase in performance.

Air Quality Emissions Testing
I live in Austin, TX. Annual emissions tests are required. The vehicle I'm asking about is a 2008 Rubicon. A friend's similar vehicle just failed testing because he had a boxless aftermarket cold air intake. However, he was told by the tester that the air intake system had to include a closed box. To pass, he had to re-install the factory air intake, and retest with it installed. My question is whether this system, and specifically the box meets the Texas requirements for a closed box system. And while I'm writing, can you comment on where exactly the cold air source for this system originates, and how its isolated from the engine compartment itself. Finally, is it ductable in any way from the vehicle hood, or an aftermarket hood? Thanks.

Hi Donald, I'm not sure about the emmissions laws in Texas, but the intake for your Jeep is not CARB exempt. That means that it may violate emission control system anti-tampering laws, and may not be legal for highway use in your state. Though Texas does not adhear to the actual CARB standard, they still may not consider the kit legal for emmissions standards.

Answers (1)
Staff Answer
Answered by Jordan C. — Nov 09, 2010 11:15 AM
Hey Charles, That's a great question with a simple answer: the difference comes down to the air filter. The PowerCore Intake comes with Volant's latest and greatest PowerCore air filter (a fully maintenance-free high-flow filter that lasts 100,000 miles). The other Intake Kit comes with Volant's standard cotton gauze performance filter (still a deluxe high-flow filter, but it needs to be cleaned at 12,000-mile intervals). The actual design of the intake itself is exactly the same, though. The only difference is the filter that's inside.

Hey Ken, The best thing about the PowerCore filter is that you really never need to clean it. It's been engineered to go maintenance-free for up to 100,000 miles (which I wish I could say about anything on my Mini Cooper). You can take it out and give it a shake from time to time, but it's not necessary...it'll hold 2 lbs of dirt without impairing the airflow. Good choice, by the way.
