Re: Next Air Intakes, which one ya think i could get??
I just installed the volant today, sounds awesome, I don't know about the butt-dyno yet because the ECU is still learning to deal with it. The only thing I would say so far that was kind of hokey was the way the box fastens to the inside of the engine bay, it was tough for me to even get it lined up and the screw barely even goes in.
If however I did it wrong (I don't think I did) somebody let me know please!

Re: Next Air Intakes, which one ya think i could get??
Yes the k&n is loud and I love it too. Pretty easy install looks good under the hood. Search installed k&n and it is on the 2nd page has pics and videos I believe.
Re: Next Air Intakes, which one ya think i could get??
I just installed the AFE, sounds great, and you can hear the air whistling, unable to verify horse power gain, however throttle feels more responsive. The main concern i had with conventional filters with oil application after cleaning the filter, was that the sensors are likely to be clogged by oil residue and stealer ship refuse the repair under warranty. (Precious experience).

TRD CAI---carb approved. No problems when you get around to smogging the truck. Also looks great, easy install, pulls air from stock location in fender well, seat of the pants dyno says whoa! and sounds bitchin'

Just installed it this morning! Very easy. Looks like it belongs there
Took the truck for a spin and I will not trade TRD CAI for a different one!

Anyone else install AFE, if so, feedback please on fit, finish and performance details, i.e., MPG changes, performance, sound, etc...
Looking at either AFE or TRD, but someone here posted installation instructions on the TRD and looks like you have to cut the engine cover, which I'd rather NOT do.
Thanks.

Re: Next Air Intakes, which one ya think i could get??
I'm leading towards the Volant or.........maybe TRD...my previous '06 Tundra had Volant intake and it was great!!..looks like Volant is winnin so far...I don't like the way you have to cut parts of your truck to just install another square box with TRD logo on it...plus Volant makes more HP over the TRD...
