Coolwazabi Posted August 6, 2008 Report Share Posted August 6, 2008 (edited) Which cold air intake should I get ??? the volant says up to 18hp & 40 pounds of torque.. but no dyno records so... yeah the k&n says about 7hp @ 4900 rpms but doesn't say anything about torque... both around the same price... anyone have exp. with both ? oh and they both got 4 & 1/2 stars out of 5 opinions ?

Aaron813 Posted August 6, 2008 Report Share Posted August 6, 2008 Just personal preference ive had good luck with them so thats the reason I recommend it the K&N is good also Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BackYardSoundZ Posted August 6, 2008 Report Share Posted August 6, 2008 Waste of money, just put a k&n filter in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
str86diesel Posted August 6, 2008 Report Share Posted August 6, 2008 K&N air filters are garbage. Hold one up to the light and look at all of the light that comes through its openings. Now think about all of the crap that it will let into your motor. BackYardSoundZ has the right idea. Don't waste hundreds on an intake. Go buy $5 - $10 worth of pvc pipe, put a filter on the end of it and call it good. kev Quote 2k6 Dodge Ram 2500...CUMMINS POWERED - SOLD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean the first minute is ok but that thing just really starts digging deeper and deeper in your earhole till you cant stand it no more. Seems like it does it with relative ease....16 12's on 8 amps.........gotta love it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChevyBoy Posted August 6, 2008 Report Share Posted August 6, 2008 i say fix your car before buying "performance mods" for it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unique Alternatives Posted August 6, 2008 Report Share Posted August 6, 2008 But if you do that, you don't get the shinny metal tube and a sticker If by metal you mean aluminum then those are one of the worst kinds of intakes because after driving awhile the aluminum starts sinking in all the heat from the engine bay and you start getting warmer air into your intake and that defeats the whole cai purpose Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coolwazabi Posted August 7, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 7, 2008 i say fix your car before buying "performance mods" for it oh.. i ditched the crap-a-lac and got a 03 explorer... but good idea guys.... so just leave it as is ??
