DELIVERED FAST AND AT A GREAT PRICE

LOOKS AMAZING, ARRIVED FAST AND AT A GREAT PRICE. I HAVE NOTICED A HUGE DIFFERENCE IN THE SOUND OF MY CAR. MORE AGGRESSIVE SOUND. THE GAS CONSUMPTION IS ALSO SOMETHING IMPROVED.

Pros
  • Comfortable to use
Cons
  • Crumpled

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

Don't believe what K&N says although they do

The K&N website says this air intake is compatible with all 2008 Volvo S40's. The air intake box has a sticker that says 2004-S40 2006, and the instructions inside the box say S40 2004-2007. someone at K&N is crazy because the website is wrong and the box doesn't match their instructions! About the parts: The parts looked good and would have looked even better if they fitted my 2008 Volvo S40 T5 AWD. There wasn't a single component that was compatible with my car. Installing the heat shield was

Pros
  • Delivery was very quick
Cons
  • So far so good

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…

Pros
  • Few competitors
Cons
  • Everything is fine

K&N Intake Manifold for S40/V50/C30/C70 with T5

Firstly Revain says it doesn't fit my 2007 Volvo S40 T5 but it is the right K&N intake manifold for my car and some other Volvo with T5 . I would recommend checking the K&N website before ordering. Second, I'm sorry I didn't know the installation is so complicated and complicated! I'm certainly not new to DIY projects, but this one turned out to be a lot harder than I imagined. I might not have bought this set if I had known about it beforehand. The guide isn't the best and requires switching…

Pros
  • Handy thing
Cons
  • Definitely a bad product
