Vararam Test Units Shipping!!!!

WE are currently shipping 6 Beta Prototype VR Camaro systems accross the the country for final airfuel ratio evaluation of both the "NO TUNE" required and the "TUNE ONLY" systems.
This will allow us to verify our in house test simulations of different Density altitude conditions for cold start and long term fuel trims etc..

We are moving to Production tooling at this time and adding the final tweaks to the systems for fit finsh as well as setting up our production CNC systems.
.
.
There will be two types of VR systems going into production a "NO TUNE" and a "TUNE ONLY"system
( our public testing has been with the "NO TUNE" systems , the weaker of the two)
WE will be providing pictures soon of the production models and complete spec sheets on both.
(You can always custom tune a "NO TUNE" system for more power)


( The final Beta test mules)
There will be many features unveiled in the production units that are also part of the Patent Pending design that will not be seen on these Beta test units

The Beta testers will be painted flat black, serial numbered and welded shut to keep prying eyes out
The pupose of these units is to gather final data from other vehicles from around the country.
.
2 "TUNE ONLY" systems will be built for tuners we have selected for evaluation.
(TBA at a later time)

(4) "NO TUNE" Prototype systems will be built for the following

1. 2-SS-RS .(Camaro 5 member)
2. SS1_2010 (Camaro 5 member and now Local 6sp test car)
3. Private Non forum member ( Local long term ,Auto test car )
4. TBA


We appreciate the Patience Forum members have shown. We will simply never push a product out that has not completed its test cycle.

Your business model even before your beta field testing must allow for rough pricing by now? What's the skinny?

Just one question, what has been the average HP gain with the no tune version?
1. 10-15 HP
2. 15-20 HP
3. Greater
Inquiring mines want to know.
