Now, where do I get an inch/pound torque wrench? I have a foot/pound but the lowest torque it puts out is 10 feet/pound. The install says to torque it at 40, 80, and 100 inch/pounds. (btw, They didn't have any inch/pound torque wrenches at pepboys, kragen or autozone.)

The answer for an 04(non rev-up) is MREV2 only, with no spacer, that shows the best gains. Don't just take my word for it though. The answer is found in "The Top 100 Common Questions" forum, under Question #8, 3rd part, 2nd paragraph from the bottom, posted on 14 Jun 06. Hope this settles this on-going debate.

On a NON-REVUP engine you could actually go either way. Both the spacer and MREV2 will give similar (but slightly different) gains. MREV2 makes a slightly higher average and the spacer makes a slightly higher peak. But the differences are small, on the order of 1-2 HP.
Both predominantly increase the top end.
OTOH,
On a REVUP engine, definitly do both the MREV2 and spacer. It will make a big difference.
