oh, one more thing, i drive on roads that are somewhat dusty. I have looked at the filter recently and it doesn't appear to be dirty. Though I haven't washed it out with water or anything. TIA!:)

Hey all, real quick post....I have had the Volant powercore CAI for about a year and a half. Do I need to replace/clean this filter. I have noticed a drop in my mileage even with a Blackbear mileage tune and have not changed my driving habits. Thoughts?

Blackbear is not from the factory. It is a custom tune for your vehicle. You get readings from your vehicle, send it to Justin and he tunes it specifically for your truck and needs. You get a new PCM and ECM. The shift points are usually changed and you end up with more torque, mileage...

Do you mean the very last band clamp that attaches the tip, or all of them?

What song is playing in the CD player?

:confused: I just installed my magnaflow catback system and all went well except for one thing -- the clearance between the tip and the rear fascia. I know it should be at least .5" and I don't think I am there. I dont see a way to shift the pipe in front of it to make it lower. Any...

He also has a guy in TX that can do it. He is performing the tune for me this week. Let me know if you want his contact info.

Unfortuneately I will be doing this on gravel...OUCH! :budo: Hopefully my torque wrench is still somwhat calibrated...THX for the tips guys:Chevy:

always call the cops and get a report, period. Whether they have insurance or not. I have been in a few wrecks and even if the report just has a date and police signature it can be used in court and for insurance.
