Hey Manny, Got the Vararam IN!!!!

Got it installed the other night. Got a mechanic/friend to install it for me.

But there is just one question?

It took a bit of work to get the hole cut in the hood and mount the air scoop up through the hood. Now with the scoop sticking straight up above the hood, I know it getting lots of air, but I have a feeling something is just not right?

You have to adjust the angle of your scoop, its up too high, tilt it down a bit
and you should pick up another 20hp for sure.
Be very carefull on the rainy days as you could flood the engine.
