Almost everyone I know with a modded truck has one. It is all about the longer runners.

I understand how this would work with N/A engines but does this work with F/I?

Thanks,

The spacer will have no performance gains on a s/c vehicle. I did some research and found that none of the Spacer companies offer a spacer for a factory supercharged vehicle. They make a zillion spacers for fords, but not one company offers one for the s/c cobra or lightning. I rest my case this mod for supercharged guys is a waste of money and will do nothing in terms of power. Greg had a reason to get one he needed space for his intercooler lines.

what kind of gains are expected on a n/a engine?

edit: they cant possibly predict 20 hp gains on the 1mz???

Enough said.

Cool! Can't wait to hear or see results of your progress. I'm sure you'll be happy with the results.

Would someone that knows explain the purpose of this mod? I have never heard of it.

I will post the results. May I ask which oil you chose to use?

just increases the volume of the intake, thus creating a greater vaccum and more fuel...please elaborate fellas, if I am incorrect.

Mobil 1 - 0W-40 all the way (although 10W-30 is also good). Cant go past it.

Greg i suggest Redline synthetic, AMSOIL synthetic, or Royal Purple synthetic. All of those are REALLY good oils.
