Alright, I have tried to find info on this and all I can find is physics speech and arguments without much of a clear answer. I am looking for a mod that will add some extra power without breaking the bank for my 04 5at coupe. I would love to go FI, but it's out of my budget and I have a sports bike to take care of that "need". I am looking at either a pulley set or intake manifold spacer. My key concerns are engine wear, gas mileage (Live in Bay Area, nations highest gas rate, a joke @ $4 now), and some extra power. Any suggestions or input on these is much appreciated.

 

5/16" spacer all the way.

It is one of the best hp/$ mods you can do.

 

I would suggest both

5/16 already on order from tony@infinitiriverside. Thanks. He also gave me a a crazy price on pulleys, so it looks like in another month or 2 I may go that route too and still be VERY close to my budget.

 

save your money and fix up the bike!

 

Not really much more to do on it. Already have great sticky tires, Scotts steering Damper,exhaust, & plenty of other mods. It's an 02' R1, no more need for power there. Now I just need to get a crash test dummy track suit.

 

nice! hey - theres always NITROUS!

 

Spacer FTMFW!!

i love my spacer...

 

pulley's are a bitch to do on this car. The spacer is one of the easiest mods ever.

 

UPS tracking has it coming in tomorrow. I also noticed I have some kind of exhaust leak, almost sounds like a low budget turbo, which is great cause a local member is selling his Greddy Sp for $200 and I can fix it.

Sgtill debating whether to put back my K&N drop-in now, from what I heard they are more trouble than theyr'e worth. Any input?

 

get spacer it is cheap easy to intall and the gain are there

 

I would stay away from pulleys. They tend to cause more problems and don't give much for gains...
