S&B vs Volant?

Which one is better? I'll be getting custom tunes for it so don't worry. The S&B is about 50 dollars cheaper than the Volant but I don't mind spending the money for a superior product. Thanks!

get the S&B. It is a very good product. The only difference IMO is that the Volant offers a RAM air style duct that mounts to the bottom of the bumper

I havent had a single problem with my S&B, great product for an even better price. I'd say get the S&B also.

The S&B is basically the same except cheaper and better looking. The Volant has that ram air thing, I question that it actually makes a difference.

Yeah I don't want to have to remove a headlight for the ram air anyway so thats fine. Looks like S&B it is, thanks guys. I like the clear top of the S&B better any way.

Plus you can have it engraved to say whatever you want up to a certain amount of characters.

You dont remove a head light for the ram ait, the tube connects and the scoop comes out the bottm of the truck.


The volant also you can get the power core filter , suppose to last 100,000 miles. Ive had mine on and still looks as good as it did when i installed in back in dec.

A lot of these pictures are in my gallery, but here is a few to show the process of install for my S&B. The hardest part was getting the box mounted up as it uses quite a few washers and with hands my size, it makes it kinda tricky
