why not sbc? basically the same setup but with a clear Plexiglas window to the filter!!! i like mine cost less too!

 

Volants intake box i think is a little different, i dont think S&B has a fender well opening. I think it just has the opening in the front.

If so volant can pull more air with less restriction.

But i honestly bought it cause well I have looked into most intakes and have always heard great things about volant.

so cant argue with that.

EDIT:

is it s&b or sbc?

if sbc what is that?

 

i kind of want an aftermarket intake.

would it be any better then a stock one with the airbox mod and a drop in k&n?

i also dont want to get water in there. i do a bit of mudding.

and as far as the fenderwell intake goes, i have one on my grand prix, and love it.

 

S&B doesn't make one for the 98+ trucks, not that I could find at least.

 

Hmm intesresting well i by far prefer my volant over k&n with airbox intake. Yes the volant intake allows more airflow than the k&n with airbox mod.

That should work on SOHC 4.0 engines from 01 up to 03.

 

I like my AEM

 

it is volant or aem for me. but i cant rember if the volant intake has a dry flow filter.

 

Ah I looked it up for a 03, weird how they didn't list it as the same.

 

ive had my volant for 3 years now and i love it.

 

Don't want to create a argument.

Wouldn't this be the same as the factory air box, but with a cone filter you can clean.

I know all the haters of the K&N system say that the factory one is a CAI anyway.

This looks just like one just a little more fancy.

 

The Volant and S&B have larger inlet openings to let more air in.

 

Anyone by chance know the inlet size on the OEM VS. Volant?

 

The Volant has a opening to draw are out of the fender as well. It looks prettier than the OEM one lol

 

Has a opening in that box?

 

Yes, it has the OEM opening and a fender opening.

 

Wow that's neat

Id get one but only available in blue wouldn't look good under the hood

 

NO the factory tube and cone are not as good as a real "short ram" intake.


alltho better than stock, the filter sucked and i had to ghetto a heat sheld and adapter, plus it was sort of embarrassing lol.

*The new and better S&b kit. It dose have a front & side fender openings that are very generous and effective, plus as shown it keeps the mud/water out.
When I went for a smog, One place failed my truck because I did not have the carb sticker attached to the air box! Since s&b forgot mine i called them up and they sent me a sticker really quick. If i had my ghetto custom thingy it may not have been smog-able..

 

almost forgot my current setup ...

 

I see all of yall have 4.0s. Im too tired and lazy right now to do it myself, but will the Volant work on a 3.0?

^^DAMN^^

 

what the hell is that?? lets talk about this abit haha.

ALSO

Volant = 2 inlets

S&b = 1

 

Yeah, that last pic looks like a whole lotta tubing!

 

Yeah its for some sort a supercharger..

 

I see a BOV you sure that isn't a Turbo?

 

its a belt driven centrifugal supercharger..

looks similar to a turbo but a turbo runs off exhaust gases..

your prob more familiar with Screw/Roots style superchargers which is throwing you off...

Superchargers can have Pressure relief valves to keep from over boosting at low speeds...
