Thank you!
On the REVUP engine it does a minimum of 15HP and 18TQ guaranteed. Many independent dynos performed by people on this forum gained in excess of 20HP and 30TQ.

Completely normal for when this is installed.

^ Very refreshing to hear this (especially from you) - thanks!

I searched quite a bit and couldn't find anyone else with this "wheezing" issue .

Think I might go for a ECU reset/idle relearn anyway.

Hey guys its been some years, can anyone confirm no negative long term effects from installing Mrev2 + 8/16 spacer?

Is everything still running strong?

I have both and just waiting for a good time to install =) 06 MT coupe.





Btw have the stillen hi flow intake, tanabe y pipe + medalion touring exhaust, my last upgrade would be the Mrev2 + 8/16 spacer. Shouldn't have any running lean problems with just this right?

I plan to stick with stock cats as changing them will make the car too loud. Whooot thanks!

My suggestion is to wait a few more years, but buy the product now just in case*

So i have a 6MT and i just installed the 5/16 spacer, but I didnt get the MREV2.

So basically, I am not getting any gains from the spacer right now?

You're not getting the gains you would experience with the combo- no. Getting 0 gains? Well- it probably SOUNDS meaner so that's got to be worth something... At least until you throw an mrev2 in there.

That's true- if you're 6mt per 05 I believe you have the non revup in which case you're golden. Thanks mad- hadn't thought of that. I saw he was an mt and left it at that- now realize we don't know what year.

Yeah, pre the revup engine, you don't need the MREV2, but it does help.

I have an 05 5at g35 coupe non-revup DE engine, I want to get the most bang for my buck with plenums and have read a lot of mixed info.. Can a reliable person please tell me if putting the mrev2 and a isothermal 5/16 plenum spacer would be beneficial on my engine or if I should just go with the 5/16

See my post right above yours.

I have MREV2, spacer and iso thermal. Most bang for buck comes from the spacer, but you still gain with the MREV2.
