Default Model # for Vararam

Hey guys,

I finally found a place in Canada that can get me the vararam intake but now I'm confused as to what the model number is. It looks like what I need is the VR2B Intake but when I quote this to the guy at the store, he tells me that this product is only the air ducts going to the headlamps and not the actual complete intake system. He's giving me a different model number. I don't wanna buy the wrong one. Which is the one I need?

He's right. You'll still have to use your air bridge to the TB. The model number VR-B2

Oh, and when you order, make sure you get the new air filter, not that piece 'o crap foam filter. Dunno what the new one's called, I think its a green filter tho.

Default air filter

Is the separate air filter still made by vararam? I might as well order that right now as well if the one that comes with the kit is crap

We have two for sale in our Corvette Club located in Canada.

One is brand new and one has about 3 months of use. This was recently removed from a ZO6 that just did a twin turbo upgrade so it is no longer reqiured.

PM me if your interested and I will send you the price for them.

It replaces your stock air box with the paper filter. You don't have to buy anything else.

Don't let him talk you into an new airbridge or MAF, your stock will perform as well as anything he will sell you.
