Volant or AF1?

I really like the AF1, but have heard good things about the Volant. I have researched both systems extensively. What would you guys choose?

Damn going all out huh stealth!!!Next you need Troyer Tunes
Hands down go with the AF1 3inch.It will not cause a lean condition in your truck!!That is the most important thing and you will gain some power!!!Troyer has tested a ton of them on the newer 150's and it does not require custom tuning.
The Volant can cause a lean condition and according to dyno tests it falls on it's face above 4,000rpm.You should be able to find some more info on this by searching.
Even though MGD is pissed at ya you should listen to what he says!!That guy knows his chit and you can't deny that!!

Yeah, I don't know what his deal is. Must have male PMS.

He is very knowledgeable about that stuff/tuning.

I have been on the fence for a long time about the intake and tuning. I know I wanted to do the exhaust my way instead of a kit. I have an edge, but I believe there is more in there that a custom tune can unleash. I really like the AF1 and Troyer custom tunes, just have to get the ducks in a row first.
