Volant intake for WS6? Volant owners come in.

I currently have a direct flo air lid. If I change to a Volant will I gain a tenth?

There's someone here who sealed his volant intake to the ram air, id say that's your best bet. I love my volant, def felt a gain in the higher rpms with it.

went from an SLP Lid to the Volant. I love it and would not put a lid on my bird again. The only gain I got was bling!

I sealed my Volant to the hood using some copper pipe foam insulation. You can get it at Home Depot or Lowe's for cheap. Works great! Do a search and you'll find a couple posts I've made regarding the install.
