thanks for posting that info

 

[SHADOW]

Me too.I`ll be getting mine soon. :cheers:

 

[Mark]

No problem guys. The dude from amsoil i spoke to on the phone said its going to be a little larger than the filter that came with the VOLANT CAI but it will still fit. Mine should be here by like friday. Ill let you all know if it fits like its supposed to!

 

[matteblack]

Did you ever get your filter?

 

[Mark]

Yeah, i got it, and it fits great. Its way bigger than the one that Volant sends with their intake. Nice chrome cap on the front of it, but you will never see it. Lots more filter media, longer filter, lets more air in, and filters way better. Any other questions?

 

[S_e_X-Terra]

Wonder if that will fit on the K&N set up?? ya think??

 

[Mark]

Its possible. Id just call and ask them. You can talk to a tech guy on the phone and they can tell you what would work as long as you have the dimensions in front of you of your old filter and filter box.

 

[npgtech]

This perform way better then the filter that comes with the volant?

 

[miles]

so how does it sound now...does your throttle feel more resposive? I was thinking of getting the volant also.

 

[Mark]

Id say its a little more responsive. And if i drive like a sane person i get some better mpg. But if i want to drive like people are pissing me off, i get mroe get up and go.

 

[npgtech]

Sounds good, hopefully I get to enjoy my CAI before I leave for my 3rd deployment. I just might look into getting the Amsoil filter to replace the one that comes with the Volant CAI.

Have you noticed the small air intake that points toward you engine bay on the volant cai? Is this to relieve pressure? I thought the purpose of this cai was eliminate engine bay hot air...

You can either cap that hole,I think it`s 3", or you can cut a hole in the fan shroud and run a hose to the valance below the grille for a second air source.
More air more power.

:cheers:

 

[nexus_7]

just got the filter...its HUGE! Gana be great.

 

[Guit Fiddle]

Stupid question here....is this Amsoil filter an oiled filter or oil-free filter?

 

[Mark]

oil free. When it gets dirty, take it out, use an air compressor, blow it out and put it back in.

 

[Guit Fiddle]

Thanks mcampana. Aren't Amsoil products available only through private or direct dealers or something to that effect? I assume I'll have to purchase one directly from the web site....

 

[Mark]

I just called Amsoil on the phone from their number on the web site. Easy. On the phone there is no way you will get the wrong thing. Just tell them what you want, item number and what your using it for. If there is a question they send you right to a tech person.

I was reading up on this (I have the K&N cold air intake currently), and noticed that Sexterra asked about the application of the Amsoil Air Filter in the K&N setup/piping/box. Did anyone do this and can verify it drops in without have to replace the rubber adaptive tube that keeps my K&N filter attached to the pipe currently?
