In this video we install a Volant Cool Air Intake that we got from AutoAnything into Logan's 2010 Frontier. We show you step by step how to install the intake and a couple little mods we did along the way. We also review the driving impressions of the truck after the install.

I have an '07 Xterra and the engine is great. What these trucks could really use is a programmer or the Pedal Commander for the electronic throttle. For some reason Nissan has delay programmed into the pedal up to a certain or some shit. After talking to other Xterra owners that have either the Pedal Commander or a programmer, they say that throttle response is WAAY better. Better to the point where it will spin the tires when you romp down on it from a dead stop. When I hammer it from a dead sop now the delay is frustrating to say the least. I say OR programmer because some programmers have the ability to also reprogram the pedal.

Oman Rap I personally run K&N systems in my personal vehicles (they were originally developed for off road racing), and I prefer to use the FIPK systems that are made mostly of plastic. The metal tubes look cool but since metal is a conductor they retain heat. Even on the the K&N web site they show their metal FIPK systems make a couple less hosepower than their full plastic composite versions.

BAMAZ#1 I had mine retuned and remapped after the installation because the airflow will be much bigger than it was before so when you have too much air in the intake system your system will run Lean that's where the stupid PO codes will pop out and you don't want that. I got mine remapped, retuned/recalibrated, and I replaced the Stock OEM Nissan Fuel Injector with another Nissan High pressure flow racing fuel injectors on all 6 cylinder, then I got a much better Spark plugs that emitts more bigger Sparks. Besides that I got a Banks Monster power Exhaust a great combination and pair with the Volant Cold Air Intake, after the install and ECM Remapping and Calibrations the truck gained 78HP and 82lbs/ft of Torque on the Dyno. Because I live in Texas State, and the Smog check is not much an issue here unlike Commiefornia I got rid of the Catalytic converter, then the number went up little bit making a gain of 89HP and 86lbs/ft of Torque, no force induction system like turbo or supercharger the engine is still Naturally Aspirated V6 VQ-40. And I kept the Truck on standard Stock OEM Height, also kept the stock OEM tires which is the Hankook dyna pro ATM RF-10 which is the Lightest All terrain all season tire among the others. BFG KO2 tires and and Goodyear Wrangler duratrac are one of the heaviest Truck tires in the market, heaviest and slow, and you didn't want that. I didn't want lifted either because it will slow down the truck and perhaps the mods the I did will be for nothing.

Hey Anthony, First off I have to say great video. It was a tremendous help when I was I installed my Volant CAI. How did you get the Nissan engine cover off of the stock air intake? Did you just take off the top portion or did you keep the entire body of it and just cut it from the tube? I cut mine off the stock tube but it will not fit. Also, did you find that the box did press up against the Brake Reservoir lines? I was worried about the pressure against the lines. Thanks in advance.

The box that isolates the filter element from the engine bay and the ducting for it.

@NKaumans 8 жыл бұрын

Bingo... The Airaid, and K and N systems draw the intake air from inside the engine bay which is counter productive for a cold air intake system. I tested the Airraid system vs stock on my truck and read the intake temperatures via the OBD interface via Bluetooth at idle. With Airaid intake temperatures were 181 degrees while the factory box was 141. In addition to running hotter than also are more restrictive. While most conical filters are bigger than the OEMs filter element in the case with Nissans 4.0 L its the other way around. There is more filter media than K and Ns open conical element. The only benefit in using K and N is that your location of your intake is risen preventing you from sucking up water in your intake while doing water crossings.

Will this be the same install for a 2007 Nissan xterra?

@AnthonyJ350 8 жыл бұрын

+alejandro hernandez Pretty much. As far as I can tell, their front clips are the same. I would double check on AutoAnythings web site to make sure they're the same part number though.

By watching your video and looking at how my xterra is set up I figured I had to do the same. When I moved the horn just to check if the air box would fit, to my surprise it didn't. I called auto anything and we did a conference call with Volant tech support. They asked for my VIN they told me even though I have a '07 Xterra its considered a 2nd generation so in reality the part I needed is for a '08. Anyway just figured I'd post this long comment in case anyone was in a similar situation as me. I wish auto anything would have asked for my VIN from the beginning, now I have to send my air intake, and two magna flow cats back since neither of them fit. The only thing that worked for my xterra was the magna flow cat back exhaust that I ordered. Thanks for your help AnthonyJ350

The VQ40DE engine was never made with direct injection.

Sorry about that, I made a correction in the description. I was a rookie when it came to VQ motors then. I'm a lot better now if you look at my 350Z playlist :)

***** yup. Just looked it up. It indeed has direct fuel injection.

@TheDevonParker 7 жыл бұрын

The VQ40DE has port injection. It was never made with direct injection, I'm not sure where you read that. The DE in the engine code denotes D: Dual Overhead Cams E: Electronic Fuel Injection Nissan uses DD at the end of their engine codes when they have direct injection. For example, the engine in the Nissan Juke is the MR16DDT which breaks down into: MR: Engine family 16: 1.6 liter DD: Dual overhead cams, direct injection T: Turbo.

***** There I go not reading things carefully. I read direct ignition and understood it as direct injection, yes not the same thing, unless its diesel. My apologies.

I have a Nissan frontier 2011 is it really worth it to do that? I'm kinda confused some says that you'll get more power and better fuel mileage. Other's say that is not worth it. So who do you trust?

@AnthonyJ350 4 жыл бұрын

Good question. Potentially yes this will add power, but also factor you have to combine mods to get more of an effect i.e. add exhaust. So it depends what do you want to get out of your truck and how much do you want to spend for the effect?

There is no way I would install an intake that I have to modify areas of my truck to make it fit. There are so many other intakes that work just as good that do not require modifications like this one. Buy a K&N or Airaid, Nismo, AFE, just stay away from Volant!

To each their own. We like tinkering and wanted to use this intake system.

Should I order a different year Volant CAI for my future 06 Pathfinder? Please explain why you needed to order an 07 CAI for this 2012?

@AnthonyJ350 9 жыл бұрын

Because the older style had a more sealed intake tube into the air box, but it required relocating some factory parts (shown in the video). If you don't want to do any modifications just order for your year.

I want to know how much more"fuel- efficient"this coverision is in terms of M.P.G.(Miles Per Gallon) NONE of these videos really crunch the BEFORE and AFTER numbers on this to justify spending the $250.00-$350.00 on a aftermarket air intake system. This video really"missed-the-mark"on this fact.
