Engineered specifically for the 2011–2016 Ford Super Duty platform powered by the 6.7L Powerstroke V8 turbo diesel, the Volant Closed Box Air Intake System (198676) provides maximum thermal isolation and extreme-duty filtration. This configuration replaces the standard oiled filter setup with Donaldson PowerCore filtration technology, making it suitable for severe-duty environments, dusty job sites, and heavy-towing applications.

The intake centers around a sealed cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE) velocity airbox that shields incoming air charges from hot under-hood radiant heat while pulling cool air through high-velocity scoops. Paired with a precision-molded venturi MAF sensor adapter, the system smooths airflow transitions into the oversized intake tract to prevent sensor turbulence and check engine lights. The integrated Donaldson PowerCore synthetic fluted filter captures sub-micron dust particles without oiling or frequent maintenance, maintaining airflow efficiency for up to 100,000 miles of highway driving.

Key Features & Benefits

• Donaldson PowerCore Dry Filtration: Advanced fluted synthetic media traps 99.97% of airborne dust and contaminants without oil, preventing sensor contamination and lasting up to 100,000 miles before replacement.
• Thermal Heat-Shielded Enclosure: High-density roto-molded XLPE airbox isolates incoming air from radiant under-hood heat soak to maintain low intake air temperatures (IATs).
• High-Velocity Venturi MAF Adapter: Eliminates airflow turbulence across the factory Mass Air Flow (MAF) sensor, ensuring stable signal mapping without throwing diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs).
• Streamlined Intake Ducting: Smooth-bore cross-linked polyethylene intake tube removes factory resonators and baffles to lower restriction and enhance turbocharger response.
• Severe-Duty Reliability: Tailored for commercial, agricultural, and off-road driving environments where high dust concentrations quickly clog traditional surface-loading filters.
• Straightforward Bolt-On Installation: Installs using basic hand tools in under an hour, securing directly to factory mounting locations without cutting or drilling.
