Actually his frustration brought Maryland Speed to post their frustration with how this was being done and I have a hunch it probably put a fire on Vararam to release. I agree it is time to be happy. The time to defend Vararam was 2 weeks ago when it was difficult, now it is easy that they are shipping. This will be a great intake even USA1 knows that which is why he still has the order. It was just mishandled and everyone following this thread knows it. Some just deal with it differently.

It wasn't dificult 2 weeks ago. They are making a product that carries their badge. They extended testing to asure it was good from the start.

Some here just acted like kids in the back seat... are we there yet??

LOL I boxed myself in a corner. I am just trying to say it was mishandled and USA1 was one side of that and now that they are being released his case has now become weaker and it seems he is being pounced. I am not knocking the product just the early release handling.

That's the big question....

I already have a base Dyno from when I first got the car. But I won't be able to go too Vengeance till I'm home next month. By then I know many will have had posted their numbers! But I think the gains won't really show on the dyno like it would on the open road with a Ram intake. Gains will be seen but not the full potential.

Probably not see much gains on the open road around town... my guess it will help the top end of the 1/4 mile... basically need to make some runs with the stock air box then switch in the Vararam... Then need to compare time slips and review the weather conditions.

If the V6 Vararam does like the V8, you will feel the difference during normal daily driving. Any increase in throttle percentage at any rpm/gear will feel stronger.

PittPaz · 06-10-2011, 07:17 AM

There should be a small difference in daily driving. Looking at the early dyno sheet from this, there's a decent increase in both HP and Torque even in the lower RPM range. It might not be night and day, but it should be something.

Can't_C_Me · 06-10-2011, 07:27 AM

I know there will be gains across the RPM range. But I'm just saying that since the dyno's use fans it won't be the same as on the open road gains. Open road gains will be way more then on a dyno. Of course the faster you on the road the better the ram will work. Daily drive should see nice gain regardless of your speed cause of the air being forced in as you roll!

PittPaz · 06-10-2011, 07:42 AM

Isn't that issue confined to the V8 MAF sensors? I didn't think it was an issue on the LLT...?

I thought the MAF situation was just for the V8's?
