Volant intake

[BRAPPPP]

Its solid. I actually found the resonance and noise of the Volant to be too loud so I'm running the Volant box and filter with the stock airbox silencer.

So basically you could of just bought a drop in filter and saved yourself $300

Just put the K&N intake system on. No drone at speed but nice aggressive sound under acceleration. No issue with remote start switch. Didn't even need to touch it. Kit comes with coolant bottle. I also bought the rain sock for the filter but i left it off. Drove it home tonight, cruise control set at 43-44mph, on flat land, no downhill, getting 22 MPG. Talk about insane. I can't even believe that I'm getting that kind of mileage.

I call BS, You have half a tank, and 200 miles left. Thats ~400 per tank.
The tank on a SCAB is 32 gallons, so thats about 12.5MPG. So over the past 400 miles, you average 12.5 or so MPG. Your 22MPG average is probably because something was reset, etc. Show me another screenshot that shows 22MPG average with 704 miles to empty on a full tank, then I will believe you.

I have one, dont like it at all. They had to send replace parts for everthing except the filter cause they were either broke or missing. It took about 2 months to get it straighted out.

Not necessarily, he wouldn't have the amazing filtration of the PowerCore Filter.

They make a lot of filters, do they not make a drop in?

Yes, I have. (Didn't use the gold stuff. Kinda blingy.) I did it as part of my AIRAID installation. Doesn't matter what intake you run, the intake tube gets quite warm. Next time you come home from going somewhere in your Rapter, pop the hood and put your hand on the intake tube. You will believe.
