Today, I'll be doing a much needed upgrade for my 2006 Chevy Silverado 1500 Crew Cab LS ( • 2006 Chevrolet Silvera... . A new Volant Cold Air Intake will be going on this truck. (www.amazon.com...)
21' if you use a drill it will be faster. The reason i got the Volant kit is that you don't need to mess around with oil on the filter. " NO OIL " no mess in the box or anything else. use the "Powercore Filter". 100,000 mile filter. It may cost a little more but worth it. And it has the best hp. gain of all aftermarket intakes. Tested on you tube. You will have to reset your air flow sensor by leaving it off and starting your engine. And let your engine light come on. Shut off engine and reset it with OBD2 car reader and hook your O2 sensor back up. This helps your engine to learn there is something new in your engine. Good luck.
The rubber piece broke after a few years from engine torquing. No idea how that happened. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Anyway I purchased a specter accordion style 4" rubber coupler and fixed that. Btw I LOVE the sound of this box. Installed around October 19, 2015. Edit: All else is good, wondering about a new air filter.
I love it, it still performs great, and if you ever need to recharge the filter, any recharge kit will work, I use a K&N recharge kit, and it works just fine.
@@graysonsgarage5157 I just put a Volant on my truck this morning and I too am impressed! Awesome throttle response, has brought some life back to my truck! I ended up going for the dry filter, as I got a great price on a kit that had it. (Like $277 including tax and free shipping) Thanks again for this great video and replying to my earlier question. You definitely sold me on it!
I have and had the power core 2 set up on my 2002 Tahoe 4x4 with 5.3L flex (vin#Z) and just installing my 2nd one. As the previous owner didnt keep it clean. And was damaged. Ran at least 100k miles on the last one. So yeah I pulled the trigger on another. Definitely wakes em up.
The Y pipe is what defeats the purpose of putting dual exhaust on your vehicle. Putting all the exhaust into one pipe and then splitting it to look like duals does nothing. Get rid of the Y pipe and put true duals on it.
It breathes better and easier than stock. Also the power core 2 filter is good for over 100k miles. Im just installing my 2nd new one as I'm at 236k miles and drove well over 100k on the first. Its noticeably better.
