I plan on building my own like a few members on here. It is like 60% cheaper and about the same performance IMO.

I'd honestly get the cheapest CAI you can find, I paid $100 shipped for my used K&N FIPK and I don't feel it's worth anymore more than that. I'm not saying I don't like it or that it isn't any good, but I'm happy I didn't pay $200+ for it.

I can get the Volant for 310 shipped. It is expensive, but then so was my truck And the magnacharger - that thing is 5 grand. I could almost buy a new CRF450X dirt bike for that. OUCH!

I guess I plan on having the truck for a long time, so 300 bucks is not even one payment. (mine are 350/mo).

Thanks everyone for your input. I am a bit concerned about the loss of low end torque that a few of you have experienced with the Volant. I have not ordered one yet, I am still thinking about it.

Mike

Alot of mods will not see their full potential untill the engine is tuned for them.
