I was just using the data that they say that the vehicle does... if the modified stock is better than most CAI from what they say ill just say 10-15HP but more leaning on 10HP from what yall are saying soooo thats 49HP ;/.

Im on yalls side for believing its a high number joke but vararam has come out with some big numbers that make people go.... what!

We will see.

An honest 10 hp would be an accomplishment

Here is my guess..... The big reveal will be on April 1st...then

April Fools!!!

Does anyone truly care about this product at this point?? Most people feel that CAI are a waste of money and the ones that don't say only to go with Roto Fab...then when you ask them why and for proof of why it's the best the responses get very shaky at best.

In other words... I jumped at the RF bandwagon because everyone else said it's best so it must be right??

I mean there are multiple posts made on this forum with dyno sheets and back to back comparisons which were made by very reputable shops and tuners. So I am not sure what you are talking about when you say the responses are "shaky at best". What else do you want as proof? If you want to prove otherwise why don't you show us data that supports your obvious cynical opinion about the intakes, Rotofab in particular? I always find it funny that the people who ask for evidence don't require any to support their own views.

Besides dyno testing I've seen a thread where they tested the CFM between the wet and dry Rotofab filters, so there is plenty of evidence available to support that RotoFab currently has the superior RELEASED product. Can it be dethroned, sure. Will it though, stayed tuned for the next episode of Dragon Ball Z!

I feel that the Vararm setup will be within error percentage of the Rotofab, an all those who waited will be happy with the results, but wish they'd just picked up the Rotofab and moved onto the next mod sooner.

The next improvement in the air intake system is going to be the ram air grill mod that is being talked about in another thread and PrayPerformance shows a tease of what he is working on.

Its probably throwing a code or something and they need to figure out why before release.

Guys, seriously, let this thread die. No more posts until Vararam has a product released. At this point they either go away entirely, or they give us something to purchase.

Regular Updates as Promised:
Independent Flow comparisons are complete!

(Quick snap-shot version)
Test conditions: D/A = 105.27%
Test equipment: Superflow 600 Flowbench
To give our competition the best chance and the highest flow numbers possible,
we removed the MAF sensor for this particular flow test. (We blocked off the MAF
hole)
Keep in mind, They are completely unshrouded by "NOT" having the fender, hood,
headlight assembly etc.. in the way to block flow during a flow bench test.
You couldn’t ask for a better day to test either.

In other words, if they were going to show us what they could do, now was the
time!
(the flow numbers)
Out of all of our competitor’s systems that we tested, the Best number we saw on
this day was 294CFM@1.5inches of water on a 5inch system.
That’s not very impressive considering the test D/A (Density Altitude) of over
105% and the MAF meter was not in place.
On a typical Hot/warm day you could expect to see something in the 280 CFM
range. In a Hot engine compartment, heat soaked up and blocked ,it would be
lower.
The Lowest number we saw from the VR systems came from the unit we dyno
tested in the last video.
It generated 328CFM@1.5inches of water with the MAF sensor “IN PLACE”.
That’s a huge difference at only 1.5 inches of depression. That’s not even the
strongest version of the system.
(This will all be on the web page in image and video format for you during release)
NEXT UPDATE:
Dyno comparisons on "stock" (No custom tuning) and Modified cars.
We already have all of the on road data from LT-1’s and LT-4’s .
That's the data that really counts, where the rubber meets the road!
No codes covering almost 12,000 miles of testing.
When we hit 12,000 miles, we turn it loose! (almost there)
Just keeping the forum members up to date.

VR tech
