I looking to buy airduct for my car..
one is made by Titek and one is Varis.

looks like
Varis is
about $100 more, but looks like better air flow.

Titek (my friend bought one..)
cheap, but not sure about fit ment.. there are some gaps between airduct and bummper. (not sure about varis one...)

which one looks better in person? (like cf pettern and fit ment stuff and finish..)

 

Titek is cheaper. They don't look any different, from the pictures.

Did you seriously say that one has better air flow? lol

 

They both look about the same but the exit diameter of the varis is bigger (the hole feeding into the intake).

 

Yes it is. The angle of the cut on the headlight side is also different. I have read here that the varis has lines that follow the angle of the headlights, while the other does not. The varies does have a larger intake nacel.

I've also seen tubing that connects the varis directly to the factory intake. I do not know, however, if this is included. I believe that is extra and I've even seen one made of carbon fiber.

Hope that helps. I'm researching all this stuff right along with ya and just passing on what I've learned in the last couple of weeks about these things.

 

I totally believe that. I was more referring to the overall benefit of it, like how much hp different could it possibly be. Also, if the exit diameter is bigger on the varis, couldn't you also file (or dremel or whatever) the Titek down some to open it more, if that's the biggest issue?
I can also see the argument that Varis is a bigger/better name, like Megan BBK vs. others.

 

Good info, thanks for sharing your research.

 

Varis = 0 hp Titek = 0 hp

 

im sure you get some benefit out of it when your moving, and not just sitting on a dyno.

 

Can anyone justify why these parts cost $100? It looks to me like it is a few pieces of plastic. I've been wanting an intake but the popcharger just looks like a regular cone filter with a heat shield. Isn't that like $20 and a few minutes of fabbing at Pep Boys?

 

It is not included. Evo-R makes them. They are made of fiberglass.

 

Varis FTW.

 

I went with the Autotecknic and love it. Pretty much the same as the Varis but a lot cheaper and w/o the wait. Just had to add some 1500* clear coat on the underside. I've read that the CF turns yellow from the heat.

Also you can link to their site in my sig. Bought mine from there E-Bay store.

EDIT: OK I'm a dumbass! I don't know why I was thinking the CF Shroud. As far as the front bumper Airduct... Varis!

 

Actually there was a article done on these ram air devices on sport bikes and they showed hp gain but at 120+mph.

 

Well I've been known to get to 120 every now and than. I'm sure the cooler air getting to a short air intake helps. Not expecting 5,10,15hp but a cooler engine is a cooler running engine.

 

Varis in stock (shameless plug) - see our ad in the classifieds at the link below
