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 Sean Baller

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Amazing sound with terrible instructions and details.

I love love love the sound of that cold air intake in my car. The instructions say it takes 90 minutes to complete, but it definitely took a lot longer for someone with a mechanical incline. The instructions were a bit difficult to follow at times. It was as if the one clip that had to be pushed down and out was very difficult to see. I had a few leftover screws and the instructions didn't explain very well where the lines went. Also, I skipped a few steps like moving the battery cables around and disconnecting the battery because it wasn't necessary. I'm sure it would make my life a lot easier. The clamp between the air filter and air mass meter did not fit by one iota. Slid on. Went to Home Depot, spent $3 and got a 4 inch hose clamp that worked much better. In summary I can say that I really like how this product sounds in my car. Grease pants Pros: Sounds great, instructions included, has everything you need Cons: Terrible instructions (at least for me), the yoke kept slipping, it took a lot longer than the instructions said One of the parts you screw into a screw was supposed to expand into that hole and for me it never fully expanded so it's loose in one spot but doesn't move or something crazy.

Pros
  • Few competitors
Cons
  • Everything is fine
