Ok, I ordered the AFM Stage 2, it arrived today, and installed it after work.. took about 30 mintues.

Ran the truck, around 2500 RPM with foot in it, sounds like a tin can rattling on the left side. made some adjustments to the "lid" of the intake. improved a little, but i think it's rattling the plastic in the wheel well. Anyone else notice this?

Re: Air Intake Systems [list and poll]

Feedback time...why are the AEM Brute Force and Volant so dominant in the voting? Fill in the Newbie from Alaska (Yes I can read but ADD prohibits me from reading 17 pages at a time...LOL)

I'm thinking because of $$.

Also, jury still out on my AFM. seems the '08 stock intake is almost as good as the bolt ons.

the Stock Tube that i replaced with the AFM stage 2 looked identical to the factory one i took off.

the AFM doesn't feel much different, in performance, but I hear a difference and it sounds like it's rattling around 3000rpm

Re: Air Intake Systems [list and poll]

a lot of people go with the AEM (like me) because of the dry filter...some people dont want to deal with oiling up a filter and possibly over oiling it....but they all work good....my AEM is great, but i would really like to try an S&B cause i heard they are great on FFV titans

dangerous,
The reason it looks like the factory one is because it's very efficient to begin with. In fact I asked AirRaid if they offered a Modular Intake Tube replacement for the Titan and they said No. Their testing revealed "no measurable increase in efficiency over stock."

Re: Air Intake Systems [list and poll]

So is the Injen intake really that big of improvement over the others? Anyone have any solid eveidence of this gain?

I just purchased a AEM intake but I will return it or sell it if the Injen is that muh better. Acording to there website they have dyno proven results of 10rwhp peak. which if you factor in the 20% drivetrain loss for the auto tranny that would almost equal 28HP.

Re: Air Intake Systems [list and poll]

I added the K&N 63 series Aircharger, Part# 63-6012, on my 08.5 TITAN. Kind of wish i would of got the injen, just because I got some of there intakes before. But the 63 feels ok to me.

Website has alot of info... because I am a new individual to titantalk, add a w in front of the following.

Re: Air Intake Systems [list and poll]

Put me down as one of the few, the proud, the Volant PowerCore owners.

The Few: Volant only shipped 25 of these before they realized they had a problem and stopped shipping any further orders.
The Proud: The install was not without danger. If you installed it without engaging your brain you could had destroyed your engine. The inside of the intake tube was filthy with plastic shavings. The air box didn't fit very well between the washer fluid reservoir and the brake components.

Re: Air Intake Systems [list and poll]

AEM Brute Force...Im very satisfied.

Looks great, good power improvement and a solid 1.5-2 MPG gain. The sound is amazing and the filter cleaning is a breeze with the dry flow option.
