Thumbs up 1/2" Spacer Installed

I have already contacted Tony about this, but just want to see if any also have the 1/2" spacer had similiar minor issues?
I have purchased a 1/2" spacer for my coupe from my350z.com groupbuy. Recieved it a few days ago (amazingly fast shipping). I have just installed last tonight, had a run. The car pulls harder, more torque in the low end and power up top. but now i notice one possible problem since i have 1/2" the plenum sits higher now, i noticed that there is a bracket that holds some sort of hoses, which is next to the bolt number 8 (according to MD spacer manual). That bracket sits much higher than before, and the wires attached to it is too short. And now its sort of pulling on the wire, and seems it is possible to hit the hood?? did i install something wrong? or its fine?

I am thinking to take the bracket off and flip it upside down

yeah...one of the other guys had this problem. you need to bend that bracket backwards so that there is not so much tension on those wires.

don't have first hand experience, but this is what I read.

No probs here--It might be coupe-specific.
