Default Installed a Vararam Today !!!

I purchased a Vararam B2 intake from forum member noneck, great guy... It was perfect.... That was about 3-4 weeks ago. Finally go a chance to install it today. It took around 3 hours by myself to get it installed. haven't take the car out to re-program the computer for it but that will be tommorrow.

Right now I have the older foam filter but have a newer on (K&N style) on the way from Jason (CajunDude) .

He's some pic's of it installed.







Here's another little touch of bling I got as well... Chrome Oil Cap....





Next mod coming up ARH Headers, X-pipe, Tunnel Plate (From Chip (Willfulone) CCA) and a Street Tune. Happening 8/7 at ECS. Thanks Chris...

awesome! I would tape around the cracks where dirt and grit may get by the edges of the filter (tape the filter to the housing), that's what I did on mine. The filter doesn't seal up very well with the stock set up.

You will be happy with the performance increases.
