Injen ColdAir Intake


It's probably new as I have never heard about it. It's around $370, one of the priciest ones for our truck. Anybody have any experience with the company and does anyone have this intake? I desperately wish I had an airbox and really dig the Volant's box, so much mud becomes a big problem. Anyways, maybe one of the rich guys will be a guinea pig and purchase this.

Here is the information about gains, up to 16hp/19tq are the speculated gains. It's also available in black powder coat!

I've actually seen that before, no kidding. If I win a scratch off or something I'll throw one on just for you buddy.

My boy just ordered this yesterday for his '05 5.6L Nissan Titan after a friend of his from out of state recommended it who owns the same truck and pulled a Volant out.

The only other mod on his Titan is a Borla Exhaust.

looks decent all up to the air box. Looks like some kid poked a hundred holes into his lunchbox. Imo chrome intakes look a little too ricey/cheap for my liking. But hey, if you like it and it works go for it.

If you don't like the air box you could always put the pet hamster in it.

Looks interesting, but I noticed they don't have a piece that goes to the hole in the fender.

They do also have open intakes for certain applications, I wonder if they experienced some issues with a CEL and Lean conditions like some of the other companies and went to this box type design.

I actually like the chrome look, but I am not sure about the box.

At least they'll have cool fresh air to breathe.

Or be shredded maliciously when they get sucked through the throttle body.

Poor hammies. Wait a minute, they're before the filter so all's well for the hammies! That makes for an ecologically safe intake.
