C4 Vararam coming soon...
Just spoke with the guys over their, and he told me that the C4 system should be available within the next 4 weeks. I know this has been talked about before, so I thought I would give everyone an update!
He says that the C4 system, is almost identical to the new C6 one they are also developing.
Just an FYI!

I'm debating waiting for this one, or just buying the Vortex one right now.
Any thoughts?

Now, in terms of under-hood coolness, I'd say the Vortex is awesome. Triple cone filters always impress, but the fact of the matter is, they don't provide any more filtration area than a K&N panel filter, and it's just plain expensive!

not trying to change the subject but has anyone done any dyno runs or ET or MPH tests on the forced air intake? that looks like a killer setup to me. i would think it would gain more than any other current setup. (the future vararam excluded)
