Very nice! How do you like the Volant intake for the 4.6? Any noticeable performance gains? I'm thinking that may be my next purchase.

I highly recommend the Volant. Once you install it, you will notice a definate increase in HP gain anf gas mileage. Step on the gas, trust me you will feel it and hear it.

Looks good - aren't you worried about your tires rubbing over bumps and stuff?

Those are the same tires I have on mine with a lift???

How much more HP have you gained?

Sweet ride!

Those are the same tires as I have on mine as well. I do go off roading with it and I haven't had it rub at all.

Nice lookin truck. I'd like to get my hands on the Volant.

IMHO, I would have put the white-letters out.

Tires dont rub at all over bumps and stuff...... only rubbing i am getting is on a hard left turn, but nothing a little cutting cant handle. Aside from that, no probs.

As far as HP, I think between pipes and intake, close to 30???

You can feel a gain though definately.

Justin - I dont think they make the OWL's with these tires, but I also have always been a supporter of the OWLs, but i like the big black look on this.

Clicker - spare - I havent tried it yet, i just bought four tires to get me started from Hummer. Paid $400 for the set. The stock spare is still under there.

Beav, for $400 for nice meats like that, I wouldn't be complaining about the OWL either. Good deal.

Any pics of your Volant intake?

How close have you kept track of your gas mileage (MPG) before and after the new intake and exhaust setup? How much gain in mpg, if any?
