Quote: just a term they have been using to distinguish between the new/old engine... newer engine has a higher rev limiter, so they call it rev-up
so this mod combo isnt just for REVUP is it?

was thinkin of the combo too plus the UTEC but not sure if it'll work w/ sedan AT.
Yes this combo will work for you. If you got a NX Wet kit (75 shot) with a NX Maximizer2 you would be set.

That is correct all 03 to 04 models have MREV lower plenums in our cars already, if that even makes sense to you. MREV2 is just a 03-04 modified lower plenum.

What are the ramifications for a lean running car? Potential engine problem or just a performance issue?

Quote: Yeah! MREV2 and spacer installed and butt dyno loves it. Took me about 3 hrs, could've done it faster but didn't want to snap bolts or strip threads so I took my time.

Car is running really strong but idling at about 500, should I or do I "NEED" to reset the ECU or anything?

When doing the install I disconnected the neg battery terminal and radio presets cleared. Doesn't that mean the ECU has been reset?
No, you will need to reset the ECU via the gas pedal..

I had SES light go off after driving it for aday. I unplugged the battery overnight. and that took care of it. so it should reset after disconnecting the battery over night.

Install question: The instructions say to soak the gasket between the lower plenum and the engine block. What about the gaskets on both sides of the 5/16" spacer, do they need to be coated with motor oil too?

Only the Aramid gasket needs a bit of oil applied to it. As the car heats up, this will cause the gasket to swell up a bit insuring that you have a good seal. The 2 other gaskets, which sandwich the plenum spacer are good to go as is and require no oil prior to their installation.

Can someone please clarify what the difference is (if any) between:
MREV
MREV2
MREV+

I have an 06 6MT and it looks to be the consensus that the best combo for me is 5/16" spacer and MREV2, correct?

Finally, where are you all purchasing them from? Motordyne directly?

Thanks in advance!
