I read on one of the install sites that you couldnt use the hi-flow one, but I am not 100% sure. I'm sure someone will chime in here soon with a for sure answer. GL and good choice to switch!

I have the Vararam. Unless I get caught in the rain, I dont drive it in the rain. I love the theory behind it, but I get scared in the rain.

For the gain, I would keep it for the piece of mind.
