teh dyno shows about 10whp gains....
if know there isnt much you can do NA to gain power...this is as good as it gets...in particular NA

hahahhaha
never understimate the butt dyno ...btu seriously d00d ovbiously its different if you go fi...plus the whole added cost... the spacer par of the package of mods you do when going FI...adn the good thing unlike buying an intake..you dont loose it going fi so a spacer is always a good buy

310hp gains? How about 670hp gain?

Or how about 405hp gain on only 10psi?

Both have the PowerLab spacer
Regardless, this is not a thread about the economics is it? But if you want to wax economics, I'll bite. On an N/A motor (which this thread is about, in respect to the PowerLab plenum spacer):
1. PowerLab 3/8" billet plenum spacer:
10whp peak for $180 = $18.00/hp
2. JWT Pop-Charger:
6whp for $120 = $20/hp
3. Injen CAI:
10whp for $250 = $25/hp
4. Intensepower Cat-Deletes:
10whp for $150 = $15/hp
5. HKS Hi-power True Dual Exhuast:
15whp for $1500 = $100/hp
6. Injen Track Edition True Dual Exhuast:
15whp for $1000 = $67/hp
I could go on, but you get the point. You don't see me showing pricing of "competitors" plenum spacers, as I have more class than that, but very little research will show you that their hp results are very similar, while the pain in one's wallet is more.
While we appreciate your opinion, let's keep it on topic. Again, this isn't a debate about bolt-on mods vs f.i., or the advantages thereof. As a shop, tuner, and manufacturer, we know and have realized more than most about the potential power that these motors have. Thanks.

When we are talking 5-10 hp at best, it is a joke, again, I did all the fun N/A bolt ons as well and the joke was on me. I think it is just smarter to save up and get gains measuered in the triple digits vs single

It has proven gains, is CNC machined, is much more reasonably/fairly priced compared to the Motordyne spacers, and has been proven to high boost/906whp. What's not to love about it?

Im sure the make a thread option can be a better option to vent your NA woes other then messing up a simple spacer thread bro cmon.
darren already showed clearly how this mod is excellent $/hp and plus you can keep it when you go FI...no way to go wrong...plus there are more people that are n/a than FI...

a little out of topic but, it would be good to know how the 3/8 performed compared to the 5/16 spacer.
anyone got data on how the 5/16 spacer performed individually? I can only find dynos of the 5/16 spacer coupled with the MREV.

yea , whats actually intresting is that i never seen a revup gain HP with a spacer alone. Previous tests showed loosing HP mid range. But on this spacer it gains all the way to its highest peak granted its a 5hp difference all the way to its peak top end 10rwhp but still quite intresting. The mrev2 kinda gave the under the curve back with the 5/16 but lacks the top end that the revup is known for.
But for the price , seriously this is a amazing deal.
