Default MotorDyne 5/16 ISO spacer

So, I installed mine and didn't notice a thing! Wanted to get some feedback from any of you with nothing but a pop charger/intake that installed the MD 5/16 spacer.
Did you notice anything??

Think about it. An additional, say, 6 peak horsepower is a 2 percent increase. Members might say that their butt dyno can feel 2 percent. I cannot.

At the most maybe 10hp. You will not feel any difference at all that is for sure. But in a drag race you may pull a tad bit better then the guy in the stock car beside you!!!

Now go run and hide, because there are many interesting members on this forum that don't take kindly to people asking about topics that have already been discussed (at length) in the past

LOL. This is true but generally, the people and moderators on this board are much mellower than some of the ultra sensitive dudes on some of the other car forums (i.e. Maxima, Celica, Supra, S2000, E46, SW20, etc.) Some of those guys act as if the world's gonna end just because a newbie refers to something that's buried at the bottom of the FAQ section.

It's only my opinion but people like that should just relax and take a deep breath [or take a big bong toke, if that's what you're in to]. Life's way too short to get bent outta shape over trivia.

Spacer def works, but the butt dyno can't tell the difference.
