So how do I tell which one I have? I think there is a serial number on the outlaw...the filter is a cone filter and red element with a black cap on the end of it...does that help?

I think my Outlaw is a POS.
Cons:
The box and tube run way too hot, the plastic is cheap, the Heimholz sits directly over the hottest hose in the bay and it whistles like a clogged vaccum cleaner under load.
Pros:
It picked up 5/5 on the dyno just by slapping it in and it's a great hiding spot for a dry kit.

Try painting it with a heat reflective paint. I haven't found a closed-lid CAI that was built as nice. Volant certainly isn't. Dry or oiled element?

I don't have any complaints about my Volant.

not everyone is going to like the same thing, get what you want, within reason.

Honestly, for a good, cheap dry filter closed element hollow out the bottom of your stock air box. Then you can either make or buy a short ram intake tube to replace that factory junk one. I actually think they sell a short ram intake tub on stylin concepts or you can build one from Lowes. You will save the expense of about $300 this way. I just fabbed up a 10 inch K&N air filter to fit on the end of a K&N short ram tube. I mean you can go buy an intake, but doing it this way you can save cash for more mods.

Either that or surf ebay and you can buy 3' sections of polished aluminum tubing and polished 90* elbows...you could make your own for very little actually...especially the tubing.
