Spacer Question

Ok I have a question for all those who have used the copper iso spacer from motordyne. I just installed mine yesterday, but I have a question about the way the copper spacer (by the throttle body) hooks up. What do I do with the stock male adapters ([the adapters im speaking of are attached to the plenum right by the throttle body] the adapters that originally had the tubes attached, which now those tubes are hooked up to the cooper spacer)? I just left them with nothing attached, as it does not seem that they seperate from the plenum. I hope this makes sense to some who have already installed this. If I need to put up pics I will, but I figured I would try without first. I apologize in advance for being so wordy, but I dont know how to explain it concisely.

Also since I put on the spacer I am getting a few dash lights, VDC OFF and SLIP have been coming on and staying on until I restart the car. I search and it seems to be brake related, I just wanted to see if anybody had any thoughts on that either.

That's all that is needed. You are done with that part of the install. The old tubes don't need to be connected to anything.

Check ALL the hoses and harnes wires associated with the plenum assembly. If anything is not in place it can cause that.

Did you unplug the throttle body (before unplugging the battery) when you did the install. This will cause the lights to come on too.

A ECU reset should clear it up after you find the cause.
