Evo Engine Spacer
For those of you who have installed this, specific to the spacer, what has been your experience? Any noticeable reliability comments, performance comments, or anything noticeable?
I was part of the group buy, but have not had time yet to install it.
Just curious how the spacer is working for people.

Ditto, still in break-in period so no chance to check extended full-throttle effects. Mine are already in, but someone ought to do some dyno pulls, checking intake air temps before and after. I recall Vadim said something like a 20-25 degree F drop. Another weapon against heatsoak.

the spacers would have no effect on engine coolant temperature. It would be crazy to think that they would do anything but lower the intake temperature. I installed them on my car and can't tell a difference but when I open the hood after some spirited driving, the supercharger "tanks" feel noticably cooler.
