I saw someone on here or my350z had one for sale.
I don't see how it helps? I would think that Motordyne would have made one if we could benifit from it.

Did you post this question over in the intake section?

Ive got a copper one, has the connectors for the coolant line. It supposed to keep the hot coolant farther from the plenum, keeping it cooler. Ive never installed it b/c I have a bypass for the line. I am right down the road from you in Coconut Creek, let me know if you want to check it out.

Yours is the one from motordyne that came with the copper spacer right? That is not the same thing. Its purpose is to take the coolant line from the plenum and reroute it to the TB so the plenum does not get so hot. If you don't want it I might want to buy it from you.
