K&N or Volant
Im having a hard time deciding between the http://www.knfilters.com/search/prod...Prod=57-3022-2 or the http://volant.com/edetail.asp?ID=158 intake. any help will help alot. also, im goign to do heavy mods to my car eventually, but for no, im curious on what little upgrades i can doo for a little extra horsepower. not looking for crazy stuff yet, just minor things. i have a 99 trans am ls1. get back at me soon! =]

They are both nice and will produce the same gains it all comes down to if you care how it looks. And just a FYI a lid will give you the same HP increase for less then a hundred dollars

I would stick with a lid. Personally I don't like the appearance of the K&N or Volant, and I don't like using oiled air filters on MAF cars.

I have the K&N and it works awesome specially if you have the ram air, take the two plastic off and it will suck air like crazy, way more than the lid, you'll feel the difference, easy to install, it come with everything you need also comes with the bellow that goes after the MAF and the filter for the egr hose, youll love it!
