We currently have one car running through West Texas to Arizona running HP tunners dataloging intake temps and airflow rates etc..

We are doing this to ensure quality and reliability , we "WILL NOT" rush out any VR system to get something to market, thats not our way.


We have Green filter USA running flat out to produce the new Camaro filter with our base.

We will be testing some tweaks to the aero package this week as well, if they work and show up in real world testing as measurable gains then they will go into the unit, if not, into our junk pile of prototypes.

We are doing something very special for the Camaro with this system ,all we ask, is be Patient, we will leak out some pics soon and then some test units will make there way out the back door by the time you are looking at the pictures online.

(added notes)
You will see strong dyno gains in both Torque and HP, but we are focusing on the power under the curve due to the cars weight (3850lbs 1/2 tank of gas)
The aero package is designed around the airspeeds we measured at the mouth of the throttlebody in a specified RPM range for max velocity.

(The "how much power will I gain" question)

I will keep this very simplified so everyone can fallow.

The Ram effect created by the system when in motion pressurizes the intake manifold increasing the natural ram tunning of the intake manifold runners.
Most modern fuel injected cars use ram tunned intake manifolds and these manifolds usualy develop another +1.5 -2lbs of BOOST at the back of the intake valve. ( this is done via wave tunning)


We can usualy make another 1/2 pound in the plenum and 1/2-3/4 at the base of the runner quite easily ( this depends on the intake manifold itself and its fill rate and the motors dynamic displacement) Thats basicaly 425-430 fly hp divided by 14.696 = 29.25hp for every 1 pound of pressure.
( supercharged engines see another 1.5-2PSI of boost as the VR system helps the engine overcome the blower losses)
( the more modifed the engine the more the VR will shine)

Total power gain is as fallows - dyno gains + pressure measured at the base of the intake runner = total gain at "THAT " given road speed. Properly designed ram air systems make power exponentially , so the faster you go ( as long as the aero package supports it ( and the filter flows it) the more power you will make.

Ex- as an example, lets say you gain +15 rear wheel hp sitting static ,no tunning etc.. then add +.5 of pressure ( = +14.6hp) by 37mph = +29.6 hp gain to the rear wheels @ 37mph with NO TUNNING!
by the 1/4 mile that will turn into +33-35 rear wheel hp ,again NO TUNNING!
on a stock motor.

Thats one of the best HP to $$ you will ever buy.

I hope this answers some of your questions.

Can't wait to see some pictures...

Sold +1. Post results when finished!!

[Mod007]

Can't wait but then again I can. I don't wan't to buy just any CAI that some just pulled out thier . I want somthing like this that takes time to make and has numbers to back it up.

[10redrocket]

Is the filter oiled or dry?

[CGM2SSRS]

Green filter is dry. With a true ram air inducted intake there is no pulling numbers out his ass. Do you think he pulled those numbers out his back side? Were talking professionals here not back yard hacks.
Thanks for the update. It's worth waiting for a tested quality performance upgrade. I will weigh the competition when all have come out to play.

I'm with you I'll be one of the first to buy this!!! I wasn't talking about Vararam pulling numbers out there back side.

[CGM2SSRS]

Gotcha! These guy's take what they're doing vewy vewy serious. And I likey too.

Well with a required re mount of the radiator, your main competition has lost my interest. That isn't taking your R&D to the level I'm looking for. Show me a solid design and you've earned my money!

I was just thinking the samething.

Not sure if you are referring to our new intake with the radiator mount thing you mention here, take another look at our prototype pictures posted today, and you will see 2 radiator mounts behind the airbox on each side, just so you don't get the wrong idea.
