Volant intake install and modification

[Mopar Steve]

Purchased this here used. Looked a little rough, but was mostly complete. Cleaned and re-dyed the plastic parts, and made a new lid from carbon fiber. Here is the thread where it was listed for sale:`

Before

After:

After installing this I have come to the conclusion this cannot not be very effective in increasing performance. Ambient air is still drawn fron the factory locations as well as from the hood. I like the look, and getting more air is never a bad thing. I will be changing some of the hardware to parts more appropriate for the application.

Outstanding job, I have a used one also that I refinished and will be installing next week. I like that idea for the cover, where did you get it made??
