Looking at getting a cai on my 2015 R/T, looking at the volant cai but want to know if anyone else has it and what they think about it, or if y'all would recommend another one over a specific one. Thanks!!

I have one on my SRT. The quality is good, but installing the filter into the housing was a complete b***h. Once I bought some different hardware, it turned out OK. I like the fact that it's not pulling ambient air from under the hood. It may make a little more intake noise over stock, but I can't really tell. I have gotten as high as 25 mpg, so it may offer a slight bump in fuel economy. Overall, I'm happy with it.

Ya that's why I'm leaning towards Volant over other brands, simply because of the box. What other hardware did you end up getting for it

I like my Volant on my 2012, but I can't say I felt performance increases. What I can say is, that my gas mileage has gone up since installing it. It looks very stock too, which I like. I'm sure the install on the 2015 will be slightly different, but even taking my time, the install only took 20~30 minutes.

install complete

Installed the intake this weekend, box fix perfectly, and yes it took some time to line up the filter inside of the box but I was able to get it fit finally. I didn't notice a difference in sound, exhaust may be a little deeper but my exhaust is already loud enough that its hard to tell. MPG appears to be a little higher but not much, I haven't really noticed any torque loss like what some people are saying, but I also haven't noticed any gains either.

did you use the stock bolts that hols the box to the tubing ? I found that they are getting in the way of the filter to seat properly.
