We have been engineering this LBZ duramax intake for approximately 5 months and we finally finished. We had a different approach from the traditional square boxes that work awesome with all our application due to the amount of volume of air in the box but we were not happy with the results on this particular set up. We hired an outside firm that brought critical data and experience to the table and using everything we had from Volant the team developed a system that no one can touch. After testing the new competetors systems that had to capitalize on the customer that couldn’t wait. We decided to test their systems and found that they only produced 2 hp at 5500 rpms at 80 miles an hour. Who goes to the grocery store at that speed? We wanted that immediate response of the line and the torque when towing. Volant designed a filter that went from a 9” diameter to a 6” inch i.d along with a velocity stack that aero dynamically functioned swiftly and with the round conical shape box that draws cool air from three location. Yes three! The scoop from the valance, between the headlight and from the fender well. The air rushes through the box and speeds up as it tapers down and the expanded chamber in the duct give the added air needed to create an air flow that cause this engine to increase an extra 25 hp. The new Volant proguard 7 is included in the kit and adds the best filtration possible without sacrificing airflow. The efficiency on this media was also tested through ISO standard and destroyed the dry filtration filters. This combination of features has opened up Volant to the next level. You will continue to manufacture the best quality systems for years to come.
  What do cold air intakes do? Why buy a cold air intake?  
  Cold air intakes bring more air into the engine, which creates more power during combustion. Cold air intakes will generally help with throttle response and higher power gains, adding a pleasing induction sound to your engine under acceleration. A cold air intake also significantly cleans up your under-hood appearance and makes it easier to see and access components of your engine bay.  
     
  Do you have to buy an air filter if you’re buying a cold air intake?  
  Cold air intakes are usually sold with all the components needed including the filter and all adapters.  
     
  What’s the difference between a cold air intake and a short ram intake?  
  Cold air intakes are usually placed in the fender well area, which brings in a cooler charged air from beneath the car (outside of the engine bay), which is denser and therefore creates more power. The piping is a lot longer than a short ram which means the power gains are not seen until the mid to higher RPM band. A short ram intake is located inside the engine bay and creates power with better response times than a cold air, however the air is not as dense, which means that it doesn’t make as much power in the upper RPM region and makes less power overall.  
     
  Are cold air intakes offered for every vehicle?  
  Cold air intakes are not offered for every vehicle and are vehicle specific. There are no universal kits available on the market.  
     
  How do you install a cold air intake?  
  Cold air intakes are a true bolt-on application. The removal of your factory air box and resonator will be needed and the cold air intake installed in its place. Basic hand tools are needed, and the intake installs in minutes.
