Default Recommended: Kinetix V+ or Motordyne 5/16

I couldn't find much info on the Kinetix V+ plenum by searching (also due to the fact that you can't search on a 2 letter combination).

What would be the best buy performance wise: The V+ plenum or a Motordyne 5/16 spacer? It would be for a 2004 Z.
I know Motordyne is very popular over here, just wondering whether anyone got good gains with the Kinetix.

Thanks

Please review the Sport Z magazine Plenum vs Plenum Spacer Shoot Out results.

Someone got a link to the scanned article?

I live in Europe, so it'll be difficult to get the magazine itself over here.....
If it's not too much trouble, just post what came out best... The motordyne or the Kinetix...

Metal has a much higher melting point than plastic. Just my $0.02. I'd prefer the spacer.

i have the kinetix V+. i like it for many reasons;obviously - more air, because its plastic it helps keep engine temp cooler, you only have one seal(gasket) to worry about (spacer has one on each side). plus it looks really nice.

Not everybody... Have seen many happy combinations of MREV and aftermarket upper plenums, although Kinetix was #3 on my list. A single sealing surface and bling factor main pluses over spacer. Cost, an obvious drawback.
