Thank you

I have an opportunity to buy a Volant and the Spacer for a fraction of the price and wasn't sure if is worth it


I don't have any experience with the spacer so I can't say, but the gain from the CAI will be minimal. With that being said, getting those items for a significant discount increases the bang for your buck.

Don't bother with the Volant or spacer. Just get the pedal commander and be done.

Don't rush at all, @RushingSlow. Throttle body spacers are reviled as snake oil by all but their manufacturers, and I have read that Volant filters tend to slowly disintegrate over time. As for the Pedal Commander, they are also not without their difficulties.

Don't be in a hurry to modify your ride. Done wrong, you're just marking territory. (Yes, that's exactly what I mean.) Take your time, do independent research, ask questions when your research raises questions, and remember the difference between opinion, mere fact, and truth.

Ruger, thanks ��
Just cut my wings.
Suppose to pick up the Volant and the Spacer today, I guess won't happen anymore .
I also have an 2014Grand Cherokee SRT, and that's the main reason I wanna make my Raptor little bit awake and joyful . I don't really compare them, but I kinda do .
For what I read here, the Pedal Commander will be the first step .
Don't want nothing crazy as this truck is my work truck.

I put the Volant CAI system on my truck, with stock exhaust. It does have noticeable noise under the hood during acceleration and I did not care for it. I cut the tube and put the box back on to stop it. Like you, got mine for a deal so kept it, little to no improvement in power or mileage
