Default Volant or K&N cold air intake

Was wanting to get a census on what everyone thought of these two cold air intakes and which one you guys would buy. Thank for your help.

Thumbs up

Volant. It seals when you close the hood. The FIPK does not seal out under hood heat once you close the hood. Bang, there goes your HP advantage over a stock lid.

I picked Volant.. because it looks better. I don't have the system, but if I was looking to buy it that is the one that I would choose.

I am totally happy with my Volant and it looks killer!

Still needs cleaning up (it's winter here) and blue oil though.

Do you actually get good results with the Volant I thought I saw that it dropped intake temps but didnt help with power that much, maybe I am mistaken.

I had an MTI setup before I got the Volant and even so, I've noticed a difference with it. Not so much at low speeds but from a roll, it's smoother and pulls ever so slightly harder. You will notice a difference from stock without question.

Is it worth the $300+ dollars? While it works great with my SLP Ram Air hood, the only BIG advantage over the other setups is the bling factor.
