I've gone through torrential downpours with no issues, you get some water droplets around the filter housing but they won't make it through the filter as it is coated with oil and hydrophobic.

If you're not using turbo clamps, you should. They are super cheap and you can torque them down to prevent movement between the TB and Vararam without having to worry about distorting the plastic.

Pretty sure he was joking, only use the Green Filter kits to clean and recharge your Vararam filters.

Get the clear oil kit from the link I provided above. The Green Filter recommendation is to clean every 6k miles.

Tony, curl the ends of the gasket outward - it will give you more surface area to pull air from and make it easier for it to seal correctly.

Pulling fuses not necessary, but it can't hurt if you do it as long as you give the ECU plenty of time to learn the new parameters.

I was completely stock before the Vararam, GTO can give you a better idea of the swap since he was running an Injen beforehand. Glad the write up was helpful!

That sucks, the 3.5" I have on mine barely grabs the first couple sets of threads on the nut. So I guess the 3.5" will barely work and is almost too small but the next size up is too big. :(
