So it's been about 2 years since I messed with this truck...I ran 13.87@99.91mph a while back using HPTuners, Outlaw intake, and a 3'' catback. I recently added a Varram intake, here are screen caps from my 13.87 run compared to my latest street run with the new intake.

The gains are "way" more significant at hwy speeds and that leads me on to believe that there is a "functioning" RAM air effect going on. My injector duty cycle went up 10% after the MAF re-cal...this b!tch pulls in some air!


I attached log files for the HPTuners folks...a 38 ft. lb gain in delivered Tq is pretty impressive in my book...also my dynamic cylinder air readings are up to .94 compared to .87 with the old intake...

 

nice gains! VR is a proven product!

 

I would get this if I wasnt saving for a turbo

 

any pictures of the install?

 

No, sure don't...

A few pics on the website... install was really easy a few pics in the instruction manual as well...

my results with just a vararam + tune.. everything else is stock

 

used to have the tripower...... very good product. nice gains btw!

 

Although I never tested the VaraRam on my truck against the stock system, I can tell you that I felt a significant SOTP gain over the Volant CAI throughout the RPM range when I installed my Vararam, and that was before any tuning. It simply works. As I've said in a thread on here early last yesr, the only way to improve this system would be to have hard plastic ducting from the scoops to the airfilter box, and to allow for a bigger than stock (like a DBX 97mm) MAF. By far The biggest bottleneck in my intake system now is the stock MAF.

 

Does anyone know if I were to get a 2008 maf for my 2009 would I be able to use the Vararam Tri Power? Because the 2009 have the maf that just bolts into the intake tube versus the older style one piece housing.

 

we've done it plenty of times... actually cut the '09 maf of the box and re-used it..
