Kinetix V+ Plenum VS. Motordyne 5/16 Spacer kit???

Which is better? for a lil more money i can get a complete new upper plenum from kinetix, but which is really the way to go? Just get a spacer, or should i get the v+ plenum? is there a major sound differance between the full kinetix plenum vs. the motordyne spacer????

thanks!

I just ordered a V+ to see if it's any better than my V. I have my V for sale now. I doubt there is any real difference at all between the V+ and V, but I got a great deal on the V+ off EBay. Check out Item Number: 330138293016 on ebay


Also, read this thread: https://g35driver.com/forums/archived-sales/122904-feeler-switch-kinetix-aps-crawford.html
I tested the 1/2" spacer verses my kinetix and I stuck with my kinetix

If you buy the 1/2" MD they suggest buying all those iso thermal kits to reduce this and that because the only place for the heat to escape is through that 1/2" of spacer. The kinetix is full plastic and allows the heat to escape VERY easily, so you don't have to worry about loss from heat that you would still have with the spacer.
