This is the new Vararam intake for the 2012 V8. From what Ive heard the v6 model will pretty much resemble this. This is not the final version but as you can see, no more ram air.

Personally I think the CAI looks much better.

Ouch... looks like I waited for nothing....

yzark99 · 08-08-2012, 08:29 PM

That's weak. Someone's smoking crack at Vararam. I hope that's not their lame-ass late design excuse for 2012.

Really pathetic, it looks like a cheap Roto-Fab rip-off.

We can only hope that this is a less-expensive version of the normal Vararam intake. If this is the only version for 2012, stick a fork in them.

Yeah I have been waiting and waiting for the RAM AIR intake to come out for the LFX, otherwise I wouldev just got a cold air style a long time ago.. sheesh hope thats not it.

jdenotter · 08-08-2012, 08:52 PM

So how is this a ram air? Looks like a normal intake to me.

According to Steve at Vararam, there is more to this intake than is shown in the pic. See Post#298 of this thread in the V8 section:
http://www.camaro5.com/forums/showth...araram&page=12

Whether any of this is relevant to the V6 version is not clear...
