Review on 🏎️ K&N Cold Air Intake Kit: High Performance for 2004-2012 VOLVO (C30, S40 II, V50, S40) 69-9000TS - Guaranteed Horsepower Boost by Paul Martindale

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Instructions not as good as they could be

Installed in 6 hours going back and forth, instructions not as good as they could be. The engine sounds great after installing the intake, but I did notice slightly slower throttle response and an increased MPG, 16 instead of 19-20 (mixed). Maybe this was because I reset all the adaptive things and disconnected the battery. I'll drive a bit and check again. I am currently considering installing a stock airbox as this is a true cold air intake. It fits for 2008 Volvo S40 T5 AWD.

Pros
  • Easy install
Cons
  • not reliable
