What Did You Pay For Your Volant Intake?


Recommended Posts

Posted

Just got quoted $474 for the intake and $135 for the power core filter. Whats everybody else paying? Anybody know of a good price that wont cost a ton of shipping to saskatchewan? How much horsepower do they claim and how much is intake noise increased. Should i get the prefilter too or not? Hopefully getting a blackbear tune soon to get some real gains. its going on a 07 5.3

you wont really notice a damn thing... just put a drop in filter in it (k&n or green) and a intake tube, best bang for the buck out there youll notice no extra gains except for weight reduction in the lighter wallet of paying for a volant

 

Air raid's intake tube is part number 200-996 that plus a drop in filter of your choice and youll be set.

ABOUT $300, YOU CAN TELL THE DIFFERENCE FROM STOCK BOGGY ON FULL ACCELERATION.

exactly you cant tell the difference except for a couple whp at WOT. This generic setup from ebay will do the same thing, probably make more power at WOT. IF i were going to buy an intake, I would get this thing for 60 bucks shipped, then buy a quality cone filter for it, and fab up a little heat shield. You'll be in for like $120 bucks vs $300. If ur gonna waste your money on intakes you should waste the least amount, and make more power while ur at it.

I have a k&n and would never waste my money on a cai again, I made damn good power with stock airbox. I wish I had that 300 dollars right now to help buy me some 243 heads.

 

 

When it gets to the point where your OEM box and tube are restrictive, the best way to open it up is with a cone filter and a tube, the thing is $300 is way too much for a simple tube and open element cone filter... U can get the K+N on its own for 65 bux and get the tube for the same price or just fab one ur yourself and get some silicone tubing for a coupler and some hose clamps.

I paid $150 for a used one for my 2003 and just bought one brand new in the box from a guy for $200 for my 2010

 

I wouldn't pay any more than that

    • Brought my 2015 Colorado into the dealership to check my touch screen issues, had that ghost touch thing happening. They said I needed a new touch screen and they could either order me one for $500. The lady at the service deck was nice enough to tell me I could order a touch screen online for less, she did stipulate that the touch screen had to be factory OEM, you can't pair an aftermarket screen to my radio seeing it was 2015, it had to be a GM factory OEM only. I found a few on Amazon and Ebay by the numbers on the back of the old screen, DJ080PA-01A GM# 22740886, Some said "OEM" in the description and others just said "Replacement". Would a replacement be the same as a OEM as long as it had the same numbers on the back of the screen? In some of the descriptions they also show different brand names but same numbers, is that an issue?  
    • I have both but typically use the 4 legged walker (wheels on front, ski's on back).   The four wheeler is starting to be used on "longer" outdoor walks.  The 4 legged walker is particularly helpful in practicing good walking posture.  Both of my knees are at different stages of recovery and I'm trying to not develop poor habits.  I can actually manage with a cane but it's very difficult not to favor one leg over the other.  My PT recommends I continue with my 4 legged walker for a while.  Yesterday was four weeks since my last knee replacement and I'm excited about my progress to date.  It has been a hell of a rough journey so far but it is exciting to witness  systematic and continuous improvement.  I went for years watching the decline of my "mobility".  It seems that everyday now I am alerting my wife to something I can do now that I couldn't a day or two ago!  I encourage anyone facing the prospect of knee replacement to share any concerns with others who have had the surgery.  It isn't an instant fix but rather is a considerable amount of short term pain for long term gain.  Recovery time and pain levels vary for individuals post surgery but the end results are typically very positive and I've never encountered anyone regretting having had the surgery. 
    • The lifter issue can be dealt with by shorter oil changes and quality oil IMO.
    • Got heavy rain, hail and light rain yesterday. 
    • I'm putting in an A-pillar pod/gauges, and I'm asking if anybody can identify a (preferably) fuse for a switched power and illumination circuit on the driver's side interior fuse panel. Offhand, everything I checked with a test light was constant-hot, and I'd much rather uses a piggyback fuse. I can certainly find a wire, but I'd rather not half-tap.   Thanks in advance for any help.
