I don't think you need strut bar spacers for the 5/16 plenum spacer.. You may want to read up on that.

Here is a link to Motordyne's website... with pricing.

I know when I went with the crawford intake I had to go with an entirely different strut bar but I know there are some spacers out there that you don't have to replace it at all...

I'm sure there is posts on this like Kinn said.

Very nice car, no offense meant by the kit comment.

Well I have never seen a Vector in person but for what it's worth I spent a night partying in Vegas with the daughter of Gerald Wiegert who started the Vector auto company. Long time ago though.

Yes, decent price if you know where you can get the spacers for cheap. You can have someone make them for you. I have one left over from my spacer. You can have it, and fabricate the rest of them to the same size.

Make sure you get all the bolts and the plastic plenum spacers too with it.

Novi huh... if you wanted a cruise... South of Ann Arbor. Evan's Street Station in tecumseh is 5 star and its AMAZING! Pricey but nothing insane... but truly 5 star famous in quite a few magazines and articles!

Rob after Dinner take her to the Mixx.
Its in the downtown bar area, overall nice bar with an eclectic group.

Drinks aren't unreasonable, and the atmosphere is pretty unique for Novi.
I really don't go out to dinner to much so I have NO CLUE on the restaurant

The Mixx is really nice... and there is a hooka bar around the corner (towards main and grand river). Fifth Ave is usually fun on a Saturday night... but date potential depends on you and your girlfriend.

Hmmm....the Mixx huh? We usually just go to Mbargo if we're up for clubbing in Novi.

So far I think the plan might be dinner at Shiro, then maybe a chick flick (Just cuz it's valentine's day) or clubbing. That "he's not that into you" movie seems to be something she wants to watch. I'm leaning against clubbing just cuz it's something we do all the time and isn't really valentine's day-ish

Mbargo is always a good time too.
Though I liked it more when it was Tequila Rain.
Mbargo though is Really good on nice nights in the summer with the deck open.
