Great quality, large green filter, great fit, maf relocates closer to the TB ( like the new C6's ) and easy to install.
If you can get it for $400.00 shipped.....
Good Luck!

This is great information, can you post any of it? That is switching from the Vararam to the Honker? I was a few HP shy of 400 with the Vararam, maybe the Honker put me over the top

If you do a search, you should be able to find the post.
I'll check with the tuner ( Bluerag ) who tuned my car and see what he can do.
He has all the info.
* These results were a product of data logging and street tuning the car with HP Tuner, not on a dyno. The results were significant for me. I'm at '3500 by the way.

You're exactly right. And the test was performed by a tuner in Georgia, MTI (who's a real Honker advocate now). Callaway had nothing to do with the test; it was completely independent.
