It’s been a couple of months since I added the cold air intake. I wanted to post a little update on how happy I am with this since it’s now warming up and I’m driving my car a lot more. My car is tuned by Livernois and they sent me a specific tune file that included the Vararam. I still have not been on the Dyno yet but all is good and I have the bonus of the sound of a turbo on my car. People in my club asked if I install the turbo over the winter when in fact it’s just cold air intake!
We work Long and hard in the R&D dep doing 3D modeling, test fitting ,flow testing and heavy on-road and track data logging to bring you the very best performing induction systems you can buy.
With the C-7 units we decided to step things up by using injection molding for some components for precision and quality.
WE are glad so many are happy with the new C-7 product !
The Z-06 and ZR-1 boys are up for release next and are they in for a real treat!

I have been following this thread since it was opened and was really on the fence regarding the VARARAM TCR7 CAI. Watched all the back and forth comments. On Thursday Day 1 of Carlisle, I met with Steve from VARARAM at Carlisle. He answered all my questions and confirmed that VARARAM techs would not be doing installs locally. When asked his thoughts on the possibility of the A&A installation team’s ability to successfully install the system he felt they could (even though he was not in a position to speak on their behalf and had not been in discussions with them concerning the possibility). He then contacted Patrick the tech at VARARAM to ensure that he would be on standby to receive any potential calls from A&A should they run into difficulties. I then approached the A&A team (Tim and others) about their ability and willingness to conduct the installation. After they reviewed the system and the instructions and due to their experience in installing other manufactures CAIs (Magnaflow, K&N etc) they felt very comfortable and confident they could do the work. Went back to Steve and made the purchase, handed off the system and Vette to A&A and approximately 90 minutes later the system was on my Vette with absolutely no issues. No CEL, no disconnecting the battery and no whistling!!! The car ran perfectly. This was all accomplished within a couple of hours on the first day (Thursday) at Carlisle. I delayed putting this out to the forum until I had sufficient time in running with the new system. Happy to say my Vette and the VARARAM TCR7 were made for each other. Now this maybe my imagination but the car’s throttle seems even more responsive than ever. Thanks and thumbs up to VRARAM and Steve along with huge thumbs up to A&A.

So what happened to Vararam? It’s been two years and still no Z06 CAI and we’re still waiting on the comparison between the supplied Green Filter and the BMS filter.
Also, I emailed Vararam twice about my supplied Green Filter not having any branding on it and being green in color. All the pictures I’ve seen online show the Green Filter with branding on the polyurethane end cap. Mine doesn’t have that and strangely enough my filter is Green in color. It was mentioned earlier in this thread that Vararam Includes a white/grey filter. Was I supplied with an inferior filter due to cost cutting? I’d really appreciate an answer. I’ll try calling Vararam tomorrow.
