Amen to that! I'd love a Volant intake just for the 'cool' factor, but the air raid intake tube i got for $50 basically brand new with all fittings. I live in the PNW so the variance in heat during the year means i prefer the enclosed airbox as opposed to the exposed cone filter, although the sound of the exposed cone filter is pretty cool!
I spent a lot of time reading the forum and looking for reviews etc... And the main thing i took away from it all was that if I wanted to get some great performance out of my truck...... buy something else or throw big money on a supercharger. Obviously this was not disrespectful, far from it in fact! It was simply embracing the Avy for what it is and what I use it for. It's my kids chariot, full of car seats, oreo and cheerio crumbs, while the back is full of half wet and moldy work gear! haha.... So while I want to individualize the truck i have and make it better, its done so on a modest budget and to get the best bang for my buck.
Would i like a full Corsa exhaust? oh yes! Volant CAI? defo! Supercharger? hell yes! haha... but not sure my wife nor the kids college fund would like it lol.
I will get a couple of photo's this afternoon and see what i can do about the sound clip, not sure if it will be with the midget down as that will require taking all the car seats out! ;o)
Thanks for the replies!
Oh one thing i did want to make note of, the Air Raid intake tube is very well made and thought out. It even has the little receptacle in the bottom of the tube for the hose clamp thingy to attach. It also has a very nice screwable vacuum tube to replace the one on the resonator box, just remember to remove the 1 inch pipe that is on the receiving end first, or else you will be sat there for 10 mins trying to figure out how to attach 2 tubes! haha..... allegedly ;o)
