How does the Volant cai stack up?
Firebird is awesome, camaro is ok. Once you get into serious horsepower the compromises with the camaro intake become a problem. The shape of the filter where it necks down to the maf is a problem, there is also a support brace in the middle of the intake for strength that eats flow. The firebird intake should be by far the best flowing one for a f-body, a larger airbox, 3+" dual cone filters sealed to the hood with the intakes right in front of the airbox. Should outflow any lid.

Yeah thats what I was thinking, for my hawk how the ram air ports are right there. Camaro SS is was in the back virtually no flow with the volant it would seem. Ive seen it say up to 18hp and 40ft lbs of tq. I could kinda believe the hp but the tq seems crazy, if thats possible I could only see that on the t/a. But then again I dont believe the 18hp cuz lids claim 12-15 rwhp...and thats just from a lid which imo sucks compared to the volant setup on a t/a.
