I installed a Vararam and a new fuel rail recently, and now my engine seems to surge a little. Any help or advice?

Go back and check the fittings everywhere. Sounds like it's got a leak somewhere in the induction system. Is it throwing an SES light?

Rod check and make sure everything from the MAF back is tight.

If all the advice fails, try installing the stock air box again to see if that cures the problem. We have found over the years that... Some C5's dont like aftermarket air boxes.
