I am thinking getting a Kenetix Plenum with a spacer, Is this a good set up or is it over kill? What plenum do you recommend? What spacer should i get? What is the gain on both set up? Will this be a good upgrade?

Number one search, I searched greatly when I was looking at a plenum/spacer and got ALL my questions answered. Sense you are too lazy to search, I will attempt to help you out. There is a bottom plenum and a top plenum (I’m sure somebody could use more technical terms). On the top you get A. a full new plenum or B. spacer. The motor dyne spacer in the dyno shootout produced the best results. However, I went with a full plenum because in the future I plan to go FI and don’t want to deal with leaks in any way. You either get one or the other, unless you like to drive with no hood. Do your homework on the subject. Find out the pros and cons, do you want to keep your stock strut bar? As far as the MREV goes, I am under the impression with a 287hp motor it would do little to no good. Hope that helps, good luck.
Go to crawfords website to see a video explaining the reasoning of the plenum.

i have a motordyne 1/2 inch plenum spacer and it works fine with stock hood. I had to buy spacers to put under the strut bar but its great. nothing touches stock hood at all.

Yes, we all know a motordyne 1/2 inch plenum spacer will fit under the stock hood. However, that was not the question. The question was "would a spacer work with a plenum" such as crawford, the answer is no. Its one or the other.

Okay, more useful this time...I would say spacer, only cos if you decide to go FI, you can still use your spacer with your stock plenum. But FI with Kinetix plenum...I dunno, that's a risk.
