Volant intake for 4.0 SOHC

[bigtigexplorer]

I know this is probably old news, but I didn't know it was available yet. I just called a local dealer and its going for $251.95 the part number is #19640.

Does anybody have one? How does it perform? Is it worth the money?

bah, youre better off getting a KKM for $90 then going to home depot or lowes and getting $15 worth of stuff to make your own custom cold air intake. $250 is too much for a conical filter in a plastic box.

$250+ is a little steep, but from what I understand there is more to this intake than a filter in a plastic box. I don't know the specifics, but the "box" and the intake tube it self are suppose to reject heat from the engine, making it a true cold air intake.

I ordered one of these almost 3 weeks ago and I'm waiting on it still... guess I should give them a call... FYI I talked to someone at Volant and he said it's not going to have the plexi cover on it, but rather be some sort of carbon fiber looking air box.

I think I might prefer the carbon fiber cover or the plexi. Plexi would get dirty and scratched real easy. When/if you get your, post some pics and let us know what you think.
