    Default vararam installed finally

    [ATTACH]car show and vararam 057.jpg[/ATTACH]ok- so before anyone gets ill about the fact that Vararam has pre-released ten units (mine being the first) understand that I am local and have been dealing with Patrick for a long time. My car was essentially the first box stock 09 that he did and he wanted to make sure everything was the same on this car as on the 08's. There were differences but nothing that will slow the release of this system. The install went well, 15 minutes and the unit was on the car. It looks great (typical of vararam products) and sounds great as well. There is a nice grunt the intake makes but not intrusive at all. My findings are as such and so you know I also have a cortex that i removed for some stock comparisons and we will do data logging next week. My car will also go to ARD in houston to have an official tune done to it in the next upcoming two weeks. THIS THING MAKES POWER! Knowing a little about intake characteristics this has been worth the wait and all of you that have been waiting will be impressed and it is definitely going to be worth your time waiting and the money spent. When leaving the shop, it was the first time that my car side stepped from a dead stop and nailed second so hard that the suspension feels completely inadequate. this was with traction control on btw. On the freeway it is very impressive as well, building huge momentum and literally feeling the suspension twist hitting third and fourth gear. I have now reinstalled the cortex tune and it feels even better but I need to drive the car a little more for all the learning curve to take place. I am open to questions and will post some pics later! You are all in for a big treat!!!!!! sorry about the pics - i will get some better later2.jpg
