Is anyone running the Volant Cold Air intake on their 6.0? There are so many different brands to choose from and I've been told they are the best.

 

im running a volant on my ss...cant say anything bad about it. i like the closed air box design and the option to run a ram air scoop. hasnt let me down yet

 

They are the best. I'm surprised the other brands can stay in business.

 

Found this on silveradoss.com, http://www.silveradoss.com/forums/in...howtopic=44289. They put AEM on top.

 

but they didnt but volant on there from what i see??? i been lookn to get one for my truck as well would like to see it compared

 

Uless I read the information wrong it puts the KNN on top (looking at HP numbers located below the graph) The AEM with out a filter only posted half a horse more than the KNN with a filter and unless its a track car only I would imagine everyone would run it with a filter. Either way any of the brands they tested are quality brands and your not going to notice 1-3 hp anyway. Air temp alone would make a bigger difference than that anyways IMO. The ones that posted lower numbers were stock intakes with drop in filters so you get what you pay for.

I have a K&N installed on my truck and im very impressed with it. Very easy to disassemble and clean the filter and easy to clean composite tube when I wash under the hood.

 

GM High Performance did a test years back and saw the best results with the Vararam setup.

 

They have a nice ram air kit that has 2 intake tunes that get air from the side grill.
I also read that their king cobra kit for silverado makes you remove a fastner from the grill. Read for your self Vararam VR-6 King Cobra, Waste of Money-Returned


I have the K&n fipk2 AND IF I could do it al over again I would have gone with volant and the down scoop.

 

Some one on here did a dyno test with the vararam and showed great gains.

Volant seems to be a favorite around here because of the box design and scoop. I have a Spectre kit that's a knockoff of a AEM Bruteforce. They all do they same think the same way pretty much. Not too much of a difference, mainly just personal preference.
