Default Volant fitment and pics please!

I am going to be buying a WS6 hood from VFN and I was looking at the volant cold air system. I did a search and found that some people had fit ment issues with the volant, however i couldnt find any pictures or any specific details of what was wrong with the volant. Post up some pics even if you like it or not!

You might want to search a bit more. There are at least two threads that have mulitple pics of various Volant setups. Each thread has numerous pages.

the volant doesn't seal the best on the ws6 hood from some post i read. you have to get a thicker foam and do some cutting to the box to have it fit and seal properly, that system is best suited for the trans am. if i were you i would just debaffle the ws6 hood then get a rubber or foam seal 1'' thick from the hardware store and install it around the inside opening. i did it to my car it works very well in the up rpms, you great better mileage and you save $250.
