Do a search as this has been discussed many, many times. People who run it usually report a decent gain at the track.

Ralph,

I have a VaraRam on my Z06.

Let me quote two other Forum members who have done and A - B comparison on the drag strip:

"The VaraRam pulled 2 1/2 mph over my Vorrtex through the 1/4 mile. VaraRam = 122.99 and Vortex = 120.58 mph." - LittleBoyBlu99 - Cedric Mosley - Tyler, Texas

"I gained 3/10s and 3 mph over an open airbox, with tie-down K&N filter. VaraRam rules." - Big Phil - Dallas, Texas


Good luck with your decision. :seeya

My MPH went from 112 to 114 and my time went from 12.7 to 12.5
Unfortunately it didn't help my crappy 2.1 60' time. :lol:
