So I just purchased a replacement AEM filter (dryflow) for my Volant. Got it in the mail and it has a hole in the plastic end cap. This hole is 3/8 to 1/2" in diameter. Did I get the wrong filter or what? What is the deal with a hole at the end of the filter that should be sealed? The part number is AEM-21-209-H (does H stand for Hole?) Should I send it back and order the other model of the same dimensions? Is there a safe way to permanently plug the hole?

Any suggestions?

Thanks.

A hole? I would cross reference that PN across the net and see if you can find any pics. If it was your mistake, I would return it and get the correct one.

on first gens thats where you put the IAT(Intake Air Temp) sensor. if your not first gen then idk.

Dunno about the hole, see above it you have a Gen 1 truck. If you have a Gen 2 truck you probably have the wrong filter. Correct part number for the AEM Filter for the Volant is 21-209EDK for a Gen 2.

Is it supposed to be brand new or used? If it is used, it could be an insert hole for a wet spray of NOS...

Awesome. Guess I have the wrong part. Have a 2nd gen truck so the hole is not needed or desired. Guess I will return it and order the other one. Really wish they would have made the difference clear on their web site. Oh well, such is life.

Thanks for the input.
