Alright guys just got a couple mods done on truck so far. Magnaflow 14", HBS leveling kit and blacked out the windows. Ill get some before and afters up when the rain is done. But onto my question my next mod is going to be a CAI but i am debating between the volant powercore and the k&n 63 series? idk which to go with. suggestions please

I vote vararam! Best looking grabs tons of air! Really easy install.

I have a PowerCore on my '05 and I love it. Looks really nice with the completely sealed box and it works really good. I am going to be putting the ram air tube on mine here soon also :smileup:

If you decide on the Volant pm me I have one for sale! Only about 5000 miles on it.

I just put the Volant CAI on mine. There was another thread around here somewhere debating the pros and cons of the various CAI's. Short of going with the vararam and an induction hood, it seemed the Volants were getting the most praise.

I bought the Volant because I liked the powercore filter and the classy looking air box, which also had a 3" inlet tube on the underside for a ram air duct/scoop. Some others here on the side have fudged a ram air duct in with readily available plumbing parts. I want to wait a bit to see if Volant comes out with a ram air scoop for the 2010's. I sent them an email asking about it last week, but they have not responded.

Volant would be your best bet for true cold air most of the CAI take air from the engine bay witch is pointless taking hot air back in

I went with the Volant because, lot alot have said, it's a sealed box minus the hole in the bottom for a possible future air scoop. I've got a friend who races his 06 Chevy 1500 and used to have one of those direct ram air intakes when you remove your head light for at the track and he switched to a Volant with the air scoop and likes it alot more.

Also, all of our John Deere tractors have a powercore filter exactly like the Volant one, just shaped differently for obvious reasons, and they are hardly ever dirty. Granted it's because they have some sort of turbo suction to help pull the dirt out but they are never dirty no matter how dusty the fields get. The K&N is going to have an oiled filer that's just going to get dirty and gunk up and limit air flow while the powercore you just blow out and put it back in.
