Updated viseo on VRX Intake
The VRX unit in the video is an engineering tool, produced with maximum adjustability in mind. This unit’s sole purpose was to collect valuable data from different engine combinations. This data has been used to zero in on the best possible combinations for stock and heavily modified engines. We have maximized the Ram tuning in each application.
The test unit has performed exactly as the CFD and flow bench evaluation predicted. Verified by MAP pressures hitting as high as 104.5 kpa from 3,000-4000 RPM!
A test note: (We had HP left in this test at peak RPM (about 6-8hp) on this test engine combination. We will revise the air horn combination used to extract the additional power from this very common stock cu/inch, stock head engine combination.)
This produces the most Torque and Power under the curve and at each shift RPM recovery point in the power curve.
What does that mean to you? – It means the VRX will produce the best real world performance gains at the track and on the street.
As you can clearly see our engineering test mule VRX has already beaten our competition hands down!
We also ran the unit against single plain and the super ram manifolds beating them all by substantial margins in both power and Toque production. (Results of all testing will be posted to our website soon)
Production units will have changes including but not limited to:
Injection molded Polymer and Aluminum reinforced construction for high boost combinations.
2-3 runner options, based on engine cylinder head flow and Cubic inch.
LS-3 and LS-7 variants
VRX RPM capability is from stock 5850 RPM to over 9000RPM in COPO Camaro engine Form.
The VRX will be Black with Red lettering.
Production is currently being set. We will have this set in the next couple of weeks as we wrap up all of our testing.

As a heads up, the LSXr is coming out with replaceable runners as well and they have already shown the protype runners, but I'm stilling waiting to see yours.

Update!!!!

VRX manifold
VRX Update: 01/30/2015
The Vararam team has spent the time over the holidays working diligently to bring the VRX to it’s final testing phase. Dialing in our Large Runner combination for engines with heads flowing beyond 340CFM @ 28 inches of water. We cannot divulge the actual CFM number or length of the runners at this time because we know our competition is watching.
Test vehicles
VR is currently organizing vehicles for independent chassis dyno tests on various engine combinations here in Houston area. These tests will cover LS-3 biased engines. The test vehicles will range from cam only, head and cam, as well as engines beyond 400 Cu inches. Testing will cover small and large runner combinations, long and short internal plenum trumpets.
If you are in the Houston area and would like to have your vehicle considered for testing, e mail us at vararamindustries@gmail.com
List the following information:
Your head flow numbers-
Engine cu inch-
Current peak RPM-
HP and Torque-
Upon completion, the tests will be posted up on our Facebook page, so sign up for the latest updated information.
The VRX LS-7 will be tested shortly, sometime after.
Production:
When the tests are made public you will be looking at the VRX as it will go into production. Our team has spent a great deal of time and money testing many prototypes components in an effort to address many issues that have plagued all LS engines from day one. These range from ease and accuracy of tune to lean cylinder conditions. Addressing both reliability as well as power production. A complete technical breakdown will show the detailed changes from OEM vs Current Aftermarket vs the VRX.
In the end we know our customers will be beyond pleased with the Power and Torque produced from the VRX manifolds, we guarantee it!
We will be guaranteeing a Power/Torque gain in writing or we will take the manifold back!
The days of wasting your money on little to no power gain on a manifold are coming to an end!

Looking forward to seeing the cam only and heads & cam results when it is finalized. If the low end bump is real, that's a bonus, but I'd like to see that extra 6 - 8 HP on the top end.

Many times intake manifolds are the last item to be swapped on an LS3 bolton only motor, because they produce the least HP/$. If this one can actually make it cost effective, that increases the size of the available market.

The VRX for the LS-7 has been testing since Dec. We can assure you of substantial gains in Both Torque and power over what you have seen from the Other Polymer manifolds. We have put the LS-7 up against the Carbon XR , OZMO , Kinsler,Holley and Fast . The VRX has dominated every test to date by strong margins in both Torque and Power production.
WE are testing on everything from a stock engines, to wild 7,500 RPM + engines. It has taken a substantial amount of time to bring together so many different engine combinations for this type of testing.
VR is taking the time to dial in the runner and plenum combinations correctly to ensure maximum Torque and HP throughout the power curve, not just a peak RPM HP number that is of little use.
The VRX for the LS-7 “IS” coming to production, along with a few other versions, anything else you hear or read is false propaganda to keep you buying parts that produce very little gain.
You will see independent test results once all of our dyno testing has been completed and all Patent protection for various components has been filed.
We are still set for early summer for the LS-7

Vrx update
Vararam VRX update
We have a summer release date for the VRX and we are on target for that date. Anything else you hear is somebody else’s speculation.
There is more than 1 manifold currently being developed here at VR.
Unlike allot of other companies, we actually do work for GM .One of the manifolds in development is for their race program.
As we have said before, The VRX manifold in the video is a beta test mule for data collection only. It uses runner design number 42, we are currently on runner design number 83! (This is the runner we intend to use in production)
The unit in the video is a test mule to prove out design concepts to ensure that we have complete correlation between our CFD and flow bench testing. This ensures that changes in design translate into real world power gains.
The pre-production units testing will be made public soon.We have intellectual property designs that we must protect before images and video can be released just like any other OEM type of manufacturer.
Here is a list of some of the changes that have been made in development:
1.Production units will be Black in Color.
2.The runners and plenums are over 1 inch lower. Similar shape and size. (Still clears 2 inch tall valve covers) Fits under a Corvette C-5, C6 firewall overhang. (That’s the lowest Hood line there is)
3.Upper runners are now a 1 piece design for strength and reliability.
4.The plenums are smaller,but of similar shape.
5.Quick removal plenums for easy trumpet interchangeability.
6.The front T section is flush flange bolted and has been moved back over 1 inch for additional clearance.
There are a host of other changes that improve both power, efficiency and engine reliability that we cannot list or show until we receive confirmation of Intellectual property protection.We should have the required Patent protections in place here quickly.
Once this is confirmed we will show the real thing on a car, on a dyno, on a road etc…
Your patience will be worth the wait and well rewarded: VR tech

Excellent work VR 
Really looking forward to getting one on my car - H/C LS2, currently at 538 rwhp.
Would be more than happy to compare the numbers vs. my fast102 w/102mm tb.
