Default Is there any interest in a Raffle for a New Vararam intake?
sigh...it must have been a lot more fun to live in the 50s.

Given I'm paranoid about warranty implications, I'd pass.

You did ask

$5 vs. $4 C notes. I'm in. If I win, I'll sell my BMS filter for 50% off (couple months old.)

SELECT MODEL YEAR AT THE BOTTOM

Sure, but not until the Z06 model is available

Just curious before we try and put something together.


not interested.... no proof they do anything but lighten the wallet and make noise.

Our sales link has the Vararam Dyno sheet showing an 18 rwhp gain. Furthermore if you look at the Dyno sheet it makes more power than the stock peak from mid 4000 rpm to redline. The acceleration difference from something like that is significant.

You could also very easily stick a data logger on the car before and after and log your IAT temps.

All that being said Vararam has a 100% performance guarantee so if you don't make power, don't run faster, and see cooler intake temps they will buy it back.

It should have let you change quantity. I had an order earlier for two.

I just tried it. I think what probably happened was you changed it to two and clicked checkout (I almost did that). It defaults back to quantity 1 unless you hit the little refresh button. I will have to look into how hard it would be to update that. Sorry about that.

hate to be "that guy" but forum does not allow raffles


you could do this as "post in this thread if interested" and then pick a random post number but raffle tickets...no.

sorry
