Did a volant...customized the box so it has no leaks or warm air coming in through...took a couple of hours cuz the wheel well sucks...dips lower now and with a 30gallon tank I get over 450 miles 2 tank and thats over 15mpg rather than 330-390

If you don't want to spend all that money on an intake, our OEM intakes are pretty efficient since it draws cold air from the fender well. You can just drop in a K&n filter and call it a day. I have one if you'd...just make me an offer! Fits into stock air box perfectly!

The only reason why I opted to take it out is b.c I got my Volant CAi BNIB for less then $150
