crank pulley+belts = 210
Test-pipes = 200
spacer = 250-400
reflash = 600 OR
UTEC-if you decide to better tune your car = 1000 + 200-500 for tuning


BTW Im not saying to do a 6 speed swap bro, Im saying swap rear end gears(aka the rear pumpkin) with a 6 speed. It will give you better acceleration....and many FI 6 speeds would swap with you in a heartbeat. The swap should take less than 2 hours.

yeah it makes better numbers then the crawford and actually it can hold up to like 1200hp? i dont remember exactly, but motordyne guy that post here was explaining that even with turbo/sc/tt it wont leak as long as the install is done correctly and tqd right

and no the belts dont screw anything up, u just have to tighten them if you get a squeel, and solves that issue

hydrazine says that the spacer can take more PSI than the motor ever will, i think theyre good for some ridiculous amount of PSI. Id link that old thread but i cant find it

long physics story short, the pulleys are lighter and thus take less energy to spin, which translates to better throttle response, better idle, some ponies, etc

yes but theres not really a good reason too from what i understand, its not the air so much its equal distribution of air to all the cylinders, seconadly ive heard stories of the kinetix plenum cracking so they made a new one the V+ or something but im not sure if it fixes the problem, i havnt heard. Just get the motordyne iso thermal and be done with it. Yes headers will work with any plenum.

man, youre lucky most of the other members would have made you research all this

the plenum and the spacer would be irrelevent and would cancel one another out in a way, waste of money.

Right now air is only being distributed to 2 cylinders, with the spacer (or plenum upgrade) it would help get air to the remaining 4 and still be equally distributing. So you see you wouldnt need both, they each do the same thing on their own... and like i said dont go with kinetix they have been known for trashy parts... if your going to go plenum, go crawford, if you want the BEST and i mean the BEST (which means dont question the plenum or spacer again or im gonna get very annoyed) go with the MOTORDYNE 5/16" ISO THERMAL PLENUM SPACER!!! and that will be all
