Default Change from Halltech Stinger to Vararam?

I'm thinking of making the switch from my Halltech Stinger to a Vararam.

Anyone do this? I really like the idea of ram air vs the car sucking in air from the engine bay. I do have the West Coast Corvette Fog Light Surround screens so technically there is air coming in while I am driving.

Just concerned with what I've heard about fitment and the supposed bad filter.

Oh, and super tired of the Halltech logo rubbing red all over my hood liner.

Its a pain to install but it is a great design for shooting air into the engine. Filter seems fine if you remember to oil it....

By the way I have read on the forum that the Vararam won't pass emissions in CA.
