Default shopping for plenum and spacer questions

So I am thinking of the mrev 2 and 1/2 motordyne plenum spacer. I have an 06 enthusiast 6mt. I know the strut bar won't fit with the 1/2, what are some known aftermarket bars that will fit? Also, down the line I'm planning on a procharger sc, any reason that would be an issue with mrev and spacer? I wouldn't think so. Is it worth replacing strut bar for the 1/2 or are any gains negligible over the 5/16?

Im pretty sure the mrev2 is uselss on the revup motors. Any gain the 1/2 has over the 5/16 would be outweighed by having to buy a new strut bar. You would be better off buying test pipes and a tune with the spacer.

Actually the MREV benefits the Revup motors much more than the normal DE.

Best mod I have done to my rev up so far is the mrev2 with 5/16 spacer by the combo and don't look back you won't regret it. Rev up owner keep your your strut bar. Procharger should be fine with those mods just get it tuned.

when I added my mrev2, and I started pulling on my friends HR with test pipes and dual HKS... then I went 1/2 spacer, I was then beginning to keep up and pull on a few Z34s... with "bolts ons"

as far as the strut bar, I was cautious, trying just about anything and everything to make it fit, but in the end, I needed to leave for a car meet, and it is honestly best handling mod i've done on a car... I didn't realize how under steery the Z33 is... with out the strut bar, the rear end rotates in a manner that I can enjoy, i'm sure when I out my sway bars on, it'll even out, but for now i'm enjoying it.

The 5/16 spacer IIRC added 5 whp peak to the DE. Really is bang for the buck a good result. The MREV didn't do as much and costs a lot more.

the license itself is about 300, then you have to pay the tuner for doing the dyno tune... my tune was about $700
