Thanks guys :drinking: - I hadn't read the whole thread and I guess that pic was somewhere on a later page.
Then it's a variation on the Twintake, or vica-versa. The Volant is a lot tidier but doesn't have the carbon eye-candy.
Forge claim that the total surface area of a filter (or 2 filters in the Twintake case) has an influence on performance. It would be great to back-to-back dyno test Volant vs Twintake but such things are really difficult and expensive to arrange unfortunately.

Id like someone to give me the dimensions of the twintake filters if possible.

The twintakes are 2 pretty small filters at a guess? (looking at can diameter), the volant uses 1 LARGE filter, oil less design with 100,000 mile guarantee manufactured by a company called Donaldson in USA.
Would be good to see the flow rates for both on a stage 2 car (Or even a stage 2+) :happy2:
