I am a little stuck here on CAI
« on: May 16, 2010, 10:44:12 AM »
There are two CAI inductions i am stuck on which on to get

Volant PowerCore

http://chevyavalancheperformance.com/shop/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=3_25_361&products_id=445

AND Injen

http://chevyavalancheperformance.com/shop/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=3_283_284&products_id=336


Both are around the same price and the main reason for getting these is because a closed box is more efficient than an open filter because hot air doesnt get mixed in with the cold air it sucking in. Anyone have any suggestions about either one of these?

I've never seen the Injen.  The Volants do look nice under thee hood.

Injen has been around for a while also but they've catered to the ricers. I've not heard anything bad about them but I think I'd tend to go with the proven Volant.

I have a Volant CAI and I love it!!  About two months ago I purchased a spare filter so I always have a clean one ready to go in!!  I have not heard anything about the Injen.
