However, as I mentioned before, this version was tuned for the street rather than for sitting still on a dyno. The dyno sessions that were done before were done to validate what was already known about how the engine reacts to the various parameters of the intake design. All of that information was taken into consideration when the production design was completed. Having spent many miles on the road with both the high power dyno design and the production design, I can tell you that there is a difference and the production design is more powerful on the street. When we have time, we'll hit the dyno one last time but I'm not sure when that will be, as I really won't have a break between 9-5am M-F until the week of the 20th.

I'd like to know where we ended up myself as well.
I'm on the list, selling it now, without those numbers might be a problem for many, We don't know what we are paying for essentially

Vararam has already put their guarantee numbers out there - 15-20RWHP. They committed to this when announcing the C5Fest pricing and then this group buy. Based on what we saw on the dyno plus how this unit performs on the street, I don't think anyone is going to have an issue with hitting those gains. If you do, send it back to Vararam - they'll take it back.

Can't wait to get home to see if I got a tracking number... I'm not sure where I'm at on the Maryland Speed list, but If I didn't get it today, I should see it very soon!

Just making a point. We're now at 8 June.

OK trying to figure out who is going to get one from Maryland Speed first.
If you preordered with Maryland speed please post what day and time you ordered.
This will tell everyone that preordered from Maryland Speed when you will get your unit.

I preordered on April 15, at 10:42pm

Just got my tracking info from MarylandSpeed guess I was one of the first.

Just wanted to thanks rolnslo, for all the work and effort he commited to aiding Vararam in producing these Intakes. Vararam found one of the good guys when they tapped you on the shoulder to help. Camaro5 forums is also better for you investment in keeping us all informed about the process. For what its worth Thank You and God Bless.
