I would suggest the stock air box over the Volant.

Just my .02

I run a UPD lid on top of the stock airbox with my Radix setup it looks and runs great.

Check out Ultimate Performance & Design in the sponsors list to the right.They sold me the lid only, I thought that was pretty cool on their part and I shortened the Magnacharger air tube slightly.

Whitt- did you open up the fender opening at all on the stock airbox.
I bought some acording rubber gasket to airtight seal the box to the fender.I was thinking about enlarging the whole. I was also wondering if made any holes in the bottom too.

Thanks

Actually,I put a 4" hole in the bottom of the airbox and base plate and ran a pipe to a scoop in the front bumper.It seems to be very effective.
