Good article - you gotta' get to about page six for the meat and potatos.

I'm still holding my opinion out until the final results are released and we start seeing similar gains by members who get this system. Hopefully, they'll be compatable with SC kits

NOTE: They did run a TB spacer with the car too, so I am not claiming this is 100% representative. However, I've read many posts where those spacers do almost nothing for power, so...
Too bad when the car was BONE STOCK they ran similar times months before in better air.

All the Vararam does is get cooler air, but with all the warping of the intake/injested sand/water hydrolock, it's really a gamble running a Vararam product. TONS of horror stories on the vette forum of terrible quality on the Vararam.....just do a search.
