sswolfpac Posted December 24, 2004 Report Share Posted December 24, 2004 just got the new volant 15153 from volant today. cant wait to install. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SSBeaumont Posted December 24, 2004 Report Share Posted December 24, 2004 Post pics of the install! I want to see if it seals (this time) to the fender, not just sit up against it? Tell us how it works out for you. Avoid the 20 HP on the butt dyno reply. I think the "Jig is up on them and their R&D" Then cross your fingers and toes that the new system performs better than stock! (Based on the posted testing,I think that would be raising the bar!) I pray for you. Good luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
04CHASE Posted December 24, 2004 Report Share Posted December 24, 2004 (edited) i installed mine two days ago and i can feel the difference but no seal on the fender wall i think somw weather stripping would do the trick Edited December 24, 2004 by 04CHASE (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sswolfpac Posted December 24, 2004 Author Report Share Posted December 24, 2004 no water can get in there right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dylan06SS Posted December 24, 2004 Report Share Posted December 24, 2004 no water can get in there right? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Wouldn't matter either way. An airbox for our truck should have 2 openings: 1 to the fender and one on the bottom... if water got in it wouldn't be an issue... unless you submerged your truck. One thing I did notice in the pics of the new system was the lack of a RSTA (RPM Specific Torque Amplifier), boost bottle, or helmholtz resonator ... basically the little bubble off of the side of the intake tube. Stock intake has one, the old volant had one, the outlaw has one? Does the new one have it? or is it just a straight tube? From what I understand this is a noise dampner as well as an essential element to and intake system... but then again I don't think the K&N has one either. Post pics please when you have a chance.
