Well, bad news guys on the Vararam unit for the 09's. Seems Vararam, in their infinite wisdom, say they aren't going to let their dealers have the units until middle of next month or end of month Jan. He jumped all over my case about it, said I didn't even get the pricing yet (I was thinking they can't be more expensive than the 03's...). This is NOT what he told me last month when I called him about it. He stated they would be ready the 1st of December. According to what he stated, they are going to sell the units themselves for the first month = month and a half, then release them to the dealers? WTF? Never heard of this before....

So, that stated. Here is what I am going to do. I am going to take pre-orders on these things, and as soon as they are released to me, I will order them all at one time....I will stick by my price I posted, and I am going to accept orders on them through the middle of January at that price! I think I, and you guys, are getting the long end of the stick from them, so let's show them they don't control the market as much as they think they do......
Unfortunatley, I am going to have to "hide" it on my website, but rest assured, all you have to do is type in "4th Gen Vararam" in the search engine and it will pull it up so you can order it....so order up guys!!!

Convert, for now.

wow...direct sales for the first month and a half sounds like it's sticking it to their dealers...take the rush orders and get MSRP out of them...hmmm, shady to me, will stick with K&N or another brand.

just my humble $.02

They string us along for 2 1/2 years and pull this?

Tired of them holding off the official release....

My assumption is that they haven't "released" it as they are not mass producing them (only doing them in small batches or something)

Now, the options........

Wait, and keep the deal I have.....
Get refund and buy directly from Steve
or....get refund and keep my Volant and call it a day?

30HP? eh........LOL

I don't really need performance for my 2 mile trip to work. LOL - it was going to be for painting the top to match the truck's theme. Was hoping to have it next week when I'm off work - but oh well.

I'll keep it for now, if I decide to change my mind I'll let you know.

I'm gonna stick with the deal, I don't mind waiting till january. I have enough going on this new year, so I prolly wouldn't get it installed till later anyway. Want to get it painted before I throw it on the truck.

I'm redoing my fogs.....and tinting my tails graphite.....so.........the sooner the better, less times to bring out the paint (cuz the VR is getting the same treatment).

They are there. If you didn't get a set, you should have emailed me. I could have gotten you a set....


trust me.
they are NOT in the box.
i got the kit in last nite at 8pm, and someone else had mentioned that the instructions havent been included in some of them.
check my pics out in the thread where vararam released the kit.
