I just finished two episodes of the Larry Sanders Show,

Default That Funny

I was in the parts store (O'Reillys) once and there was someone asking how many quarts of oil there vehicle took. This young guy behind the counter responded "It Takes A Quart For Every Cylinder You Got". I was quick to tell him he was wrong so that someone didnt mess up there vehicle. Thats another parts store funny.

Anyone have any experience with the Volant? It's basically an enclosed box with a high surface-area filter & a 4" front opening. I would think this would be ideal for this rig & prevent much of what is talked about here & give a nice HP gain as well???

You should have bet him the air filter on it, in front of all the other salespeople...
