: VOLANT GROUP BUY
SCMSTony 09-30-2005, 12:08 PM Hey everyone, we just got off the phone with Volant and they have started shipping the Gen3s. We need 20 sales on this buy to honor pricing (we have 30 on order) so let us know. You can PM me (Tony) or John with your phone number and we will call you for the order or call me at 805-233-2818. Hope to hear from you.

Jackalope 10-04-2005, 02:19 AM Humm ...
We just did a aFe... Im wondering who would go with this and what the difference would be from aFe.
Thanks
BroncoAZ 10-04-2005, 02:23 AM I had the money back in August, but you never called...
Mitch
Are there any pics available for the gen3??????????????? :?: Just went to their web site and no help; and the link for dealer search was not working. Can get a great deal on a K&N but was interested in the Volant.
msp2928 10-05-2005, 04:37 AM Did I miss the buy?? I second the request for pics!!!
Tony - Just sent you a PM. I am in.
baseballfanz 10-05-2005, 07:18 PM Here's a picture (http://www.titantalk.com/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=16806) of RockyMtnTitan's V3.
BroncoAZ 10-05-2005, 10:07 PM That's a sexy new top they put on there.
This is probably too much to ask, but is there any difinitive answer on which intake kit makes the best all around power, both low end and WOT?
Mitch
BJBIG 10-05-2005, 11:34 PM How much shipped and how do I pay and when shall I expect it? I want one!!
Shyster54 10-06-2005, 02:41 AM Sorry, Volant lost me as a customer a long time ago...
msp2928 10-06-2005, 02:56 AM That new top looks Baddddddddd. Can't wait for it!!! Now I have to convince the wife for an exhaust.!!
Hazertmed 10-06-2005, 03:45 PM How close are you to getting 20 orders?
BJBIG 10-06-2005, 05:09 PM Sorry, Volant lost me as a customer a long time ago...
Why?
BJBIG 10-07-2005, 03:38 AM Hey Tony, where are we with this buy?
Sorry, Volant lost me as a customer a long time ago...
Why?
Probably took too long and went with something else like a lot of us.....
Hey Tony - Will you take an AEM Brute Force as a trade-in...???
BJBIG 10-09-2005, 08:53 PM So whats up with this? When are they coming in?!
I had the same question and I am planning on calling Tony at So. Cal. Motor Sports on Monday. Anybody else interested I think you should do the same!! His number is 805 233-2818.
fadec 10-10-2005, 12:52 PM I want a cold air intake too but I want the best bang for my buck! I dont care what it looks like, I want the most power with my Magna Flow duels. What have the Dyno's showed?
msp2928 10-11-2005, 05:02 AM Sent in my info....Where we at?????????????????????????????????
Tried to get a hold of tony but just got his voice mail............. :(

msp2928 10-13-2005, 06:29 PM Hello Hello?????? :( Is any one out there????? Noting since Oct 4.... Should I be looking else where???? That dri-flow looking better and better. 8)
BroncoAZ 10-14-2005, 12:16 AM This is starting to look like the August Volant group buy. Can we complain to the moderators about the vendor?
Mitch
That was my question!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I was hoping that another vender would help us out so I PMed JasonB at www.burtmanindustries.com when I was checking out his cool door seals and I noticed the Volant intake advertised on his site.
Here is the my PM and his reply>>>>>>

Those door seals are awesome and are definitely the next thing I’m doing to my truck. I was checking out your website and noticed that you are selling the Volant intake. I was wondering if that price is for the new Gen3?
There is at least 15 or so Club Titan members interested in a group by that Tony at So. Cal Motor Sports was offering but we have not been able to get a hold of him for at least a week. (Group Buys, Raffles, and Special Deals for CT Members.) My question for you is it at all possible as one of our sponsors' for you to set up a group buy if SCMS doesn’t fall through...?
A lot of members have been waiting for this newly designed Gen3 and I know that if you set this up it will generate plenty sales for your other products.
JasonB:
I'm sure I can help out if you can't get a hold of him for a group buy. But, the last time I checked, there is no way to verify which ones have the new lid or don't. It's the same part #, and I would ship these straight from the warehouse.
Again, I hope they make some way to tell the difference by a new part #.
BJBIG 10-14-2005, 01:16 AM Tony told me to call him on Friday... earlier in the week. I'll post what I hear!
Sounds like a plan>>>>>>>>
msp2928 10-14-2005, 11:18 AM Its friday, anyone here anything???? AEM with new "Dri Flow"could ship tomorrow!!
BJBIG 10-14-2005, 12:46 PM he said on his VM - that he was having computer problems and would be out of the office this AM....
SCMSTony 10-14-2005, 02:25 PM Hi everyone one. As you know we have been accepting orders for the group buy now for almost 2 weeks. We have 30 units available to us, but we need a minimum of 20 sold units before we can ship. Right now we are sitting on 14 sold units. If you want in on this buy please call me at 805-233-2818 and let's get it moving. Tony
msp2928 10-14-2005, 11:14 PM 6 more!!!!! Come on, anyone, anyone!!!!
BroncoAZ 10-14-2005, 11:34 PM I'm still debating the AEM vs AFE vs Volant. The AEM has the dry filter. The AFE's filter is way bigger than the Volant, but that cover looks unfinished. The Volant is the best sealed from hot engine air and looks the best. I'd like to know which makes the best power in the low end. I'm thinking the AFE with the silencer box may have the edge.
Mitch
WindsorFox 10-15-2005, 02:53 AM I never saw a price on this??
It was posted in the other Volant group buy:
Here it is...................
Hi everyone. I recently put up a post about a group buy for AirForce One intakes and unfortunetly I jumped the gun abit. It is a new vendor for us and we did not have all the needed info. Sorry everyone but to make up for that mess up how about a Volant Group Buy????
I have Titans in stock and the pricing will be $243.00 + $15 s/h anywhere in the continental US. I need at least 10 orders before I can release them. Call or PM me if you are interested. Thanks.
BJBIG 10-15-2005, 05:33 PM I am still hoping to get one....
Hi Tony,
I've repeatedly tried to connect with you via phone and PM with no success. I would like in on this buy. Is there an internet option or perhaps PayPal? My work schedule is tough the beginning of this week so a phone call can only happen really early or late. You should have my info from previous PM's.
Please let me know how we can get this done.
Thanks,
Reid
msp2928 10-17-2005, 12:36 AM Interesting Quote above. It states that he needs 10 to ship and now its 20. Reid I hope you get in we did need 6 more, but I don't know where we are at now!
I talked to Tony on friday the number is 20 and I think were at 15-16. He told me the price was $158 shipped and he said one or two shy of 20 he will ship at that price. (Stated in the quote)
msp2928 10-17-2005, 03:09 AM $158.00????? 8O 8O 8O 8O Is that true??????? 8O 8O 8O 8O 8O
BJBIG 10-17-2005, 03:59 AM I hope to hear from him tomorrow!!! I am gonna call him if I don't hear...
BroncoAZ 10-17-2005, 06:51 AM I'd totally be in at $158, but the number is $258. $243 + $15 shiping.

Pricing on this buy is $258.00! Delivered in the continental US
jcarter 10-17-2005, 03:27 PM So where are we at Tony on this buy? :?:
Thanks for the correction Tony!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I would have thought that high school would have taught me to proof read before posting.
msp2928 10-18-2005, 06:36 PM Any new word on how close we are to 20??????
SCMSTony 10-18-2005, 07:23 PM Right now we total 17 orders for the buy. Hopefully will have the 20 be end of the week.--Tony
this is not the best deal i have found a gen 3 for $240 that includes shipping!!!!!
BJBIG 10-19-2005, 12:12 AM this is not the best deal i have found a gen 3 for $240 that includes shipping!!!!!
Where?
msp2928 10-20-2005, 10:48 AM I support our sponsers when it comes to such a little price difference!
BJBIG 10-21-2005, 10:20 AM I support our sponsers when it comes to such a little price difference!
I agree! But I am hoping that he lets them go SOON!
BroncoAZ 10-21-2005, 10:34 AM I went with the AFE group buy instead.
Tony,
This is way too large of a group to tease with a good deal on a product, and then not deliver (The August GB) and your customer service skills are way below par (not returning PM's, phones and computer not working). You have lost countless customers to AEM and AFE over the past three months, and given Volant a bad name. Next time I would highly recommend having the product in stock, or at least making sure the manufacturer is shipping them before you get the group all stoked for a GB.
Mitch
msp2928 10-23-2005, 12:57 AM Did we make the 20 yet???????????
Shyster54 10-23-2005, 01:37 AM The prior 4 pages graphically illustrate one reason why the Volant lost me, and many others, as a customer. Good luck to the rest of the gang, however!
Talked to Tony today and he said we are (1) short of the goal. He will ship more than likely ship tomorrow and sent us an email w/ the tracking number.
Hope all this waiting was worth it!!
Thanks again TONY
BJBIG 10-24-2005, 11:04 PM cool! I am hopeful to hear from him....
It would help to make sure that this deal is finally going to happen if the reat of the group buy customers drop Tony a line.
msp2928 10-25-2005, 06:39 PM No word today! I will PM him. This seems like the best way to get a hold of him!
I had better luck getting home of him on the phone..
msp2928 10-27-2005, 04:42 AM Boy this is my first group buy and I am staring to get a bad taste in my mouth reguarding these. :? :? :? Seems like the discount is not worth the wait and lack of communication! Much longer and I will be going with a different one!
SCMSTony 10-27-2005, 01:02 PM HEY EVERYONE WE HAVE THE 20 ORDERS. AS SOON AS THE OFFICE RUNS ALL THE CREDIT CARDS WE WILL BE SHIPPING. EXPECT TRACKING NUMBERS IN THE NEXT DAY OR SO.
TONY\
Its about time!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I guess they were waiting for all 20 to order. This group buy only started on the 1st go figure.
msp2928 10-28-2005, 02:37 AM Allright! Now I can't wait!!
Just checked my account and I billed for the Volant hope to see the email conformation soon no change that hope to see my intake soon!!!!!!!!!!!!! Hell must have frozen over. :evil:
SCMSTony 10-31-2005, 10:41 AM Just checked my account and I billed for the Volant hope to see the email conformation soon no change that hope to see my intake soon!!!!!!!!!!!!! Hell must have frozen over. :evil:
Everyone will have tracking numbers today. Thanks to everyone.
Tony
BJBIG 10-31-2005, 12:54 PM Hope I get mine soon....
Just got my Intake today and installed it after work. I’m VERY unsatisfied with the third attempt from Volant. I feel that I have the same problems other members had w/ the first two versions. When I get on it and on the freeway at 2500-3000 rpms my dash rattles. The instructions are the worst i've seen. I installed the mat and the cap on the box and no help. The screws supplied for the MAF sensor did not work at all the OEM ones worked perfectly.
I can go on and on. I will call Volant, and Tony, tomorrow about getting my money back; if not I will sell it for cheap.
I WAITED FOR A MONTH FOR THIS AND I SHOULD HAVE TAKEN OTHER MEMBERS ADVISE AND GONE W/ AEM OR AFE.
Check out these instructions
msp2928 11-02-2005, 03:18 AM Well maybe I should consider myself lucky! I have not been billed or received a tracking number yet! Maybe I will stay quiet! I like the idea of driflow anyways. So much for group buys! I will pay the extra to get it when I WANT IT!
BroncoAZ 11-02-2005, 04:17 AM The AFE group buy worked GREAT!, who knows, maybe the code still works at sparkplugs.com
Mitch
Check the dino results on the dry flow before buying they show a noticable drop in the low rmps compared to stock. There is also a cool video on how to clean the filter.
I believe the sparkplug discount code still works.
***** Everyone who got the gen 3 volant the website is being updated w/ better instructions. If installing make sure to use your OEM screws to mount the MAF sensor, the ones supplied didnt work on my kit.
* And mount the foam pad to the fender not the box make sure to make the needed holes for the bolt and the stock mount which this new kit reuses.
This should make things alot easier IF NOT JUST wait for the new instructions unless your like me and just went for it with the instructions supplied.
GOOD LUCK
TitanPsycho 11-03-2005, 01:46 PM Yep, it's going to be the AEM Brute Force for me.
That was my second choice, that dry filter is the best on the market.
boo5o3 11-06-2005, 01:46 PM New to the forum, Jus wondering if this deal is still going on? And if it is, since I know the AEM fits on a QX56, does the Volant fit??? Sorry if it sounds like a newbie question... Any help would be appreciated. Thanks
