Thinking about buying a volant. Have one on my truck and love it. Anyone have one on their v6? Good or bad results?

They are nice units! I'd look into Roto-Fab or CAI first though. They seem to be a little higher quality. We carry tons of options. Take a look!

I have the volant intake installed on my SS and love it, the over all look goes great with the engine cover and the unit fits great in the car.

My friend is selling me his volant for 200 bucks is that a good deal or can i get a better intake for around the same price ?

caligrown562 · 08-22-2011, 05:09 PM

I want one in a closed box. I kno the cai is and looks nicer. But 400 is kinda steap for an intake. Any problems with the volant setup?

caligrown562 · 08-22-2011, 05:10 PM

Why is he selling the intake?

robg91z · 08-22-2011, 05:23 PM

Cuz he got an SS and hes selling it to me for my v6 for 200 buucks sp thats why im asking if its worth it or can i get a better one for that price

caligrown562 · 08-22-2011, 06:03 PM

That's pretty cheap. Most of the ones I have looked at are 300 and up for a decent one. Did your buddy like the intake when it was on the car?

robg91z · 08-22-2011, 07:20 PM

Yes he actually did but im kind of ehh about i really dnt like the filter on it :/ i wonder if u can switch out the filter itself with a k&n filter one ? Anyonr ever done or try this

Order the Volant with the oiled filter. I wouldn't recomend their dry powercore filter! Our prices on Volant are the best around. Check it out!

That is the entire system with the oiled filter! Nice system and a great price!

I installed a Volant CAI Powercore filter on my 2012 V6 RS this past weekend. I like the factory look, sound, and responsiveness. Also like the fact that the Donaldson Powercore filter is highly efficient when it comes to filtering. Filtering dirt is my #1 priority, then HP. So far no CEL. Volant has a great filter but poor instructions. Got mine for $225 at AutoAnything.com If you buy one be sure to do the three following things. Disconnect battery before, get a few stainless washers for the MAF sensor because the supplied screws are too long and will pop through the injection molded MAF mounting area. Lastly, be sure to remove the GM MAF gasket before installing the Volant gasket. Other than those three things you may want to let the car idle after installation with some small revs to let the MAF sensor learn the new few to air ratio.
The car is my wifes and she had a big smile on her face when she hit the gas. It has a nice sound and a subtle deep gurgling sound when cruising in 6th gear at about 45 mph. I'll let the newness wear off a while and shoot for a Magnaflow cat back next year.
