I love the volant. It's a sealed box intake but it's aggressive at wot. Intake alone make much power but use with a proper tune will make it more beneficial

IMHO, no, it's not worth it......unless you simply dig how it looks in your engine bay.

It wont so much by itself, you need to get better exhaust to see any real gains. Better throttle response, thats about it. You're gonna have a lead foot so you wont see mpg gains

I have had many intakes on different vehicles. I had a volant on my tahoe for a few years but took it off because all it did is make a lot of noise while pulling trailers with no noticeable power gain without a tune. Some vehicles yes, others no. If you do other mods and a tune go for it but if you are doing intake only don't waste your money.
