volant air intake with air scoop

thxpro713 · 04-14-2006, 09:40 AM

just wondering if anybody out there has it installed. i love the carbon fiber accent to it. i really want to know how the air scoop fitment is. i am probably going to buy it in a week or so. would a volant or banks exhaust be best for this combo? also will i need a ecu controller to not lose mpg?

I have the Volant CAI with ram air and the Banks Exhaust. The fitment for the air scoop is fine if you route it correctly. I have photos of it in the Photo Gallery:

Too bad they don't make an ecu controler for us yet.

Does the tow hook have to be removed to use the Volant ram scoop?

I like the combination. They work well together.

I have the volant banks combo. I first installed the Volant, immediately noticed better throttle response, and had a better sound than stock. 1 month later installed the Banks, I may have lost a little on the low end, not much, but get this thing on the freeway, and look out!!! Hauls some serious azz on top end. I was also worried about getting the banks because of the drone issue, but it doesn’t really bother me, and my wife actually likes the sound of it!!! It really has a low deep growl, but not as obnoxious as I would have expected.
