For those of you with plenum spacers, will you be upgrading to the new Cosworth manifold or stick to your guns.

Have to wait and see. I have yet to do a plenum mod. It would be great if it turns out to be a useful gain.

$1000 and you're not geeting the CF intake tube. Attach is what your getting.

We have seen some fancy upper plenums before. Independent testing showed that they did nothing for performance.

Now I pre-ordered one and I'm starting my F/I build now. I can't justify buying this if you plan on staying N/A unless you're going for bling appeal. I ordered mine for, hopefully, great gains F/I & for bling appeal. Those that don't want the bling appeal N/A I think the MotorDyne 5/16th is the best route.

not worth the cost to me, but to each his own.

The website said 17WHP gain, I think. For $700 over a spacer, an extra 2WHP is most certainly not worth it - not even if you're boosted. Rip off, imo.

They need to make the end caps clear so you can see the stacks........ That would be FN sick.

So dumb question maybe. Does this go on top of the spacers as an addition for more power or do you have to remove spacers? Also if you have the 06 would this be ia mod to compete directly against MREV2?
