Hey owners of the Volant CAI!!
I installed my Volant a few weeks ago and I love the thing. I considered ordering the scoop but it was over $125 for a piece of plastic. Has anyone tried removing the cap on the Volant airbox and leaving it open. Would this increase air flow? Sounds to me like it would breath better. Even yet, has anyone tried fitting some flexible PVC hose on the end of the tube and tying it somewhere below the radiator? Anyone with ingenuity try anything that we non mechanically inclined can try? I hate spending $125 but the ad says increased mpg on the highway due to the ram effect.
Any comments out there? This topic really just came to me when I was installing gutter drain off tubes. You've seen them....black or green hose with a square funnel at the end.
