They'll work but the cover may rub on the hood insulation a little.

Here are my gains for the 1/2" MD spacer with ISO Thermal Kit. I had no loss in power on my 2003 G35C 5AT.

this is probably a stupid question ( ^_^ ) but with the iso thermal what if you're lazy and don't want to frig around with opening/closing the valve when it goes below/above 55deg. F.........should you just leave it open or closed?

In that case . . . Get the Copper ISO. Set it and forget it! Enjoy!

Well, during the chill of the Winter months, you should set the CCV to "Open."

Upon the install of the CCV . . . You just simply position the CCV so that you can adjust it with a long flathead screwdriver. It literally takes 5 seconds to pop the hood and turn the valve to either the "Open" or "Close" position.

yea, but see, that's work ^_^

I thought the air intake blocks the CCV so you've got to bob and duck and twist like a contortionist to reach it?

I have a Z Tube, so that clears up alot of the extra clutter, which the OEM intake tube presents.

You, my inquisitive friend are stuck between a jelly bean and a marshmellow. Motordyne affords a fine alternative for extra power. However, like everything else . . . You need to apply a bit of effort to reap the profits.
