Default BIG SHIPMENT OF LAPD/VARARAM VR-B2s JUST ARRIVED AND ON SALE!!!

Dear Corvetteforum.com Members,

We just got another big shipment of Vararam VR-B2s in stock and we need your help moving them because we have another big shipment that is arriving in another week. They are on sale until they sell out, so email us for your best price TODAY before they are all gone again!

We call them the LAPD/Vararam VR-B2s because of the new premium performance filter exclusively carried and designed by us for the avid C5/Z06 street driver. This new filter outflows all other filters and provided outstanding power gains during our dyno testing/tuning sessions. The new filter is a premium and with that said, it is an extra: $50.00 value, but we include it with every single VR-B2 AT NO EXTRA CHARGE.

Don't be misled by other Vararam sales! Our VR-B2s are different and the dyno numbers prove it!! Get your VR-B2 from a company that has done extensive R&D dyno testing for you. We spend the money testing the aftermarket products so you DON'T HAVE TO WASTE YOURS!!

We also have Vararam Velocity Stacks in stock as well dubbed the VR-B3.

Email us for your forum price at: Sales@TheLAPD.com

Thanks!

Shawn


Vararam VR-B2


Vararam VR-B3 Velocity Stack provides more torque when used in conjunction with the Vararam VR-B2

Can you give more details on this premium performance filter? Maybe a picture. Will you sell this seperately?

Our new premium performance filter was designed by us with the street driver in mind which most C5/Z06 owners are. We designed the filter to be the highest flowing air filter. Just to give you a idea, our premium filter flows twice as much air as a K&N filter to provide the maximum amount of air without bogging down the MAF or TB. We don't have any pics of the filter as of yet and we don't have any extra filters to sell separately, but we will in the next month or so. Right now, the premium filters come only packaged with our VR-B2s.

Our latest dyno results with our premium filter on a bone stock 04 Z06: 19 rwhp and 16 rwtq

Dyno results with the K&N filter on the VR-B2 on a bone stock 04 Z06:
14 rwhp and 10 rwtq

The car ran much better, more efficient during our testing of the premium filter over the K&N filter and cooler, not to mention the way the car felt powerwise.

Hope this info helps.

Thanks!

Shawn

Also, any dyno pulls to show exactly how much that velocity stack helps.

Ttop34,

Good question. I forgot to post our findings on the dyno with the VR-B3 velocity stack. With the VR-B3 velocity stack, we saw a 1 rwhp increase and a 3 rwtq increase. Keep in mind that that was the max value output on the dyno graph, but in some parts of the dyno graph pulls we saw upwards of 5-6 rwtq with the velocity stack over the dyno pulls without the VR-B3 velocity stack. It does work and for $29.95 extra, it is well worth the money!

Thanks!

Shawn

Shawn-

Hope LAPD can run a GP for those customers that have purchased the earlier VR1 Vararams and get the advantage of the LAPD Premium Filter. Count me in!

rickvette,

Currently, our premium filters are combined only with the VR-B2s. We will have the premium performance filters available for purchase separately in the next month or so. Hang in there.

We are doing everything we can to get everyone handled and taken care of.

Thanks!

intel55,

You can use the stock airbridge or you can go aftermarket.

On the dyno, we swapped the stock airbridge with our high flow carbon fiber air duct and initial results showed 6 rwhp and 3 rwtq, but after a 30 mile drive, the car relearned and then the dyno results showed a 2 rwhp and 1 rwtq increase.

Thanks!

Guys,

Just to let you know that out of the 35 Vararams we just got in, we are down to 5 left in stock.

Get them before they are sold out. The sale price is good until these sell out and then the price is going back up! They are selling out faster than we ever thought!

Thanks!

Shawn

mike76002,

This intake will be ok to use under hard rain conditions. The new VR-B2 has improved water troughs to prevent hydrolock.

I emailed you the price!

They are selling very very quickly, so get your hands on one before they are all gone.

Thanks!
