It definately won't fit inside the Volant box....the base is 8.5" and the Volant filter's base is 5.5" which puts it right at the top of the box already. Plus the i.d. of the AFE filter is 4 3/8"...the Volant is 3.5". You could maybe fit a 6" base filter with a larger top dia and extend the length by about an inch.
I think the difference in flow with the AFE is a combination of a better filter design (not necessarily size) and a better tube design...tapered to give better velocity. I'd bet if you replaced the Volant filter with a similar sized AFE, or even the Dry Flow filter from AEM, you'd see slightly better flows and probably better filtration.
