10hp without tune on pure stock Camaro. Volant claims 16hp. Now, you will run lean without a tune however, you get even more horsepower with a tune.

True, I dynoed 10hp/15.5ftlbs at the wheels with just an Volant intake change.

I have seen quite a bit after a tune. I have no dyno proof though. You run very lean (because of less air restriction) without a tune, so much lean that if it gets real cold outside, the car may throw lean codes which clears when warms up. Now that you are getting that much air in the engine and get your fuel dialed in from the tune, it gives better gas mileage and better wide open throttle performance. I would say with a tune the CAI by itself will give 20+ horsepower. After ******* tune from the Diablosport Predator, I get 29mpg on the highway at 75mph but of course 20 or less in the city with my kind of foot lol. Check this out!!

You cannot go wrong with Volant and Predator. You can get it around 275 shipped.

Just an fyi. I have a volant on my 2012 LFX with the dry powercore filter and have driven in temps down to 11 degrees without any CEL. No codes. Been happy with it so far.
