Just wondering if anyone knows if this intake is/was available for the LS3 style heads?
I was reading around and looked at some different dyno graphs of this intake compared to the stock and FAST version, and this beat the fast in all areas, Off idle, mid range and top end as well as more rpm range.
To me it looks as if it either never went into production or that the product was a failure.
There was a claim that this was suitable for engines that needed 340cfm of flow potential which is why there was a good power gain with the initial testing.
Would be good if anyone knows what has happened with this intake and to share the information for all of us to see.

 

I dont think it ever came to fruition...i remember reading a "joke" related to that recently somewhere.

 

I thought it came in runner up to Duke Nukem Forever for a Vaporware Lifetime Achievement Award

 

Incorrect.
Simpsons doom.

 

What do you guys think of this test?

Looks like the fast tunnel ram makes more torque than the stock LS3 intake and with shorter runners.
I am a little surprised it it didn't peak a bit later.

Look how this intake hardly lost any low end torque compared to the LS3 intake. Pretty good if you ask me.

 

not bad at all. Still needs to exist to function..

 

Vaporware IS hard to quantify....

 

I think it’s available now, test was done in March of 2018 https://www.performancedesign.com/pr...age/carbon-ptr

isn’t that just a carbon lid on the fast tunnel ram?

 

The link does look like that.

I went into vararam site and could not find the vrx intake listed.

 

theres a long thread on Camaro5 about the vararam with people asking for updates every few months. Nothing from vararam though since I think 2015... not looking promising lol

 

Guys, that fast tunnel ram is available for purchase.
i can get one in Australia.
There are two available for sale upon doing my research.
The VR X though is not.
I received a few emails from vararam.

 

Don't hold your breath, mate.

 

I'm not.
They keep changing their story.
It's almost like a non sexual **** tease.

 

There’s like a thousand different ls3 intakes out there just find something else

 

i know there is however this intake gains very good torque and power off idle and to red line compared to the LS3 intake.
i saw some of the preliminary testing done and the results were impressive.
This would have even better driveability than the the fast tunnel ram and I think it will fit a stock hood.

 

VR-X's new intake will be available when Smokey finishes his car.

 

Don't say that.
That means never.

 

I like to use the words... "EXTREME distant future".

 

Existing intake > nonexistent intake
