i have a motordyne 5/16 spacer when i put it on my car do i have to get it tuned at a shop/dealership or what? I heard your supposed to to get it tuned and i didnt know if it was true just asking that way i know.. and if you do have to.. and you dont get it tuned right away does it mess up the car, just couple of "?" i have before i put it on

 

U don't need a tune. You'll b fine. When u start adding more breather mods it wouldn't b a bad idea because ur car would benefit from it but with JUST a spacer u will b fine..

 

i have a CAI on there also does that matter?

 

^^ He's right, you don't need a tune. I'd just disconnect the negative terminal on the battery when you're doing the install, That way the car "adjusts" after doing the install...

 

awesome thanks for the info will be installing it soon like i said i didnt know if i needed it dun or not thanks

 

You didn't hear it from any of us! MotorDynes spacer is the "best bang for your buck," anyone that's installed them knows this. And no, even with an aftermarket intake you don't need to get your ride tuned. You have a long way to go before needing a tune, they're performed by special tuner shops not the stealerships...FYI

I'm thinking of getting the basic 5/16 spacer.. Do u feel the difference?? Do u feel it more on the highway or from a stop??

 

Don't waste your money on a tune until you have more bolt on mods ie. exhaust, hiflow cats, etc.

 

How much HP does it add to the car?

 

Yeah any reviews on this? Its not obnoxiously loud right? I was going to get the Isothermal 5/16 spacer and I was just wondering what people thought of it/how it holds up in the cold?
Thanks!

 

The only mods I have are the CAI and my exhaust obx performance (was on the car when I bought it ) idk how good the exhaust is but I do like the sound just fine that's why I was askin if I needed a tune or not

 

Highly agreed. The spacer is well wroth the money, you won't be disappointed. IMO, another good mod would be HFC's or ART pipes(test pipes). Little more pricey but you'll tell a difference.

 

ive been pondering a tune, i have the spacer, art's, true dual exhaust, and pop charger/z tube. i think the tuner said he may be able to squeeze another 10hp out of it and take the lean out of it. i may try it.

the spacer made a good bit of difference on my car, maybe 5+ horse and a bit more noise.
