Who's intake system works best?

SS Crew · November 30, 2004

Alright guys and gals, you've done the basics for hp gains - as far as intakes go, who's is best, who's is quiet, and if it's quiet, does it perform too? Do the cold air / ram air inductions do any good?

I love my Volant system,But I did "pitch" there filter in favor of a K&N filter.

I like may KNN. I do have a book put out by KNN that lists guaranteed increases. According to their book your 04 2500 will increase 13.83 HP @ 5054 RPMs for the reqular If its a 2500 HD it will increase it by 15HP @ 5179RPMs. Again this is Guaranteed. Im not sure if others Are stateing the increase you will get.

I just installed a new Volant and am very pleased with the performance gains and quality & appearance excellent product I highly recomend it.

I installed the K&n Fipk2 on my 4.3 before I traded it on my new truck. Very noticable gain and would purchase it again.

I had a K&N FIPK on my '96 S10, and now have one on my Z71, and have been very pleased with both.

I'm happy with my K&N...I've had it on there for almost 4 years now. I remember noticing an improvement when I installed it, and you definitely hear it.

Did you notice a gain in gas mileage?

I just got the Volant for my Duramax and it made a nice difference. A freind just got a Volant Kit for his 01 silverado 5.3L. He also got the optional Ram air scoop that fits behind the bumper, and draws air from the passanger tow hook opening. His system sounds crazy at WOT! I Hope they come out with a scoop kit for the Duramax! I think he got his kit for 350ish from carbuffsweb.com

I put a K&N FIPK on my 01 4.8L reg cab sierra, and I got noticeably better highway mileage, about 2 MPG better. This coincided with what I percieved to be also added top-end power. The city mileage was about +1 MPG.

Put on K&N FIPK on mine. Big waste of money, time and effort. Only noticeable difference is lots of noise from under the hood but no noticeable power increase and for sure no extra fuel economy. Too bad they dont have a money back guarantee because they would be getting it back.

Volant. Had one in my '03 and now in the '05.

Like said above, excellent fit and function. Looks good as it runs.

MS3DALE Is there a K&N part # that fits the Volant? Does it perform better than the V-Filter ya think?

99Silver6.0 · November 12, 2005

Outlaw Power is my new intake. I will not buy another K&N product.

I have the Mac perfomance intake it seems ok on my 04, but on the 02 big differance,

I have been told by more than a few people (Diablosport, Mac, K&N) that you need to disconect the battery for about 30mn to reset the PCM when you install one or you wont notice any difference.

I will see for myself I didn't notice anything and took it off, I just reinstalled it and disconected the battery, I will see today if I notice anything.
