New Vararam
I just finished installing the Vararam air intake system. Not too difficult, but was time consuming. About 4 hours total. Good fit, hooked right up, took it for a spin and runs great.

no it was a dude with a (stock) GTO, it does whistle kinda loud tho. as for making the "car" sound different, i doubt it's enough to make a big difference but you can hear the air being sucked in for sure.
the exhaust sound won't change with the intake addition.

I found this web site very helpful. The shroud removal and re-install was a pain because of the tight fit. I am pleased with how it all came together. I thought everything fit very well and I didn't need to adjust anything.
