C5 Corvette VaraRam Cold Air Intake VR-B2 - Free Shipping

C5 Corvette VaraRam RAM Air Intake - VR-B2 (1997–2004)

For 1997–2004 C5 Corvette owners running the 5.7L LS1 or LS6, the VaraRam VR-B2 is a cold air intake with a ram air design built for stronger airflow, quicker throttle response, and a more aggressive induction feel than the factory intake setup.

It is a smart option for C5 owners who want a bolt-on intake for street or track use without cutting or drilling the car. The VR-B2 also keeps the factory fog lights in place, which makes it especially appealing for owners who want more airflow without changing the look of the front end.

Why Choose This Intake

C5 owners usually choose the VR-B2 when they want more than a basic underhood intake swap. The appeal is the ram air layout, the cleaner airflow path into the LS1 or LS6, and a design that works with the car once it is moving instead of only changing what you see under the hood.
