Out of all of them we have tried, Halltech's Killer Bee seems to be the new preferance around here. and it takes allot for Greg to be convinced.

Hi Carlos,
I had a Vararam installed several months ago and it definitely wakes up the performance around 40-45 mph. Other popular ones are the Callaway Honker and the Ligenfelter CAI. I've heard from several folks that the Ligenfelter can be difficult when doing the filter cleaning.
I'm sure Antivenom suggestion is excellent as well. Vararam purchase plus install ran about 350.00 or so. Good luck. Let me know how it goes.

I doubt you could tell a difference on a dyno, since there would be no forced air effect that way. Heard a lot of people who liked the results they got from the Vararam, but thought the quality of materials could be a bit better.
