Do i have a plenum spacer??
Bought my Z about a month ago and was wondering if i have a plenum spacer? I measured it and it looks like its about 5/16. Which means its hopefully the MD spacer.. Here is a pic for reference

Test pipes are a good idea, unless you have to do inspection/emissions. If so, HFCs are a better route. I've got both in stock

Since you don't know the real brand, you can just tell yourself it's your favorite one and be extra happy with it. Doesn't matter anyway, they are all mostly the same from brand to brand. I want to get one soon, going to go with the same one you have.
