MMkay, I've been searching for the last 4 hours and not finding what I came for. I know it's here because others have found it but I'm at work and I can't dedicate the time it takes to reading every post I find. Too many with mods in their sigs. I'm looking for info on the MREV items. Specifically what they are and what they do. I've gathered that they're a lower intake manifold but what are the major differences and is there one for my 04 6MT Sedan? I found the one on motordyne's website but it says it's a Revup item.

Can you guys help me out, please?

Do you know if the Inven bumper would scrape? Or do you know who i should ask about it?

Well some people scrape OEM bumpers and some people manage not to scrape when they are slammed. Really depends on who you are and where you live. But you are in the sedan section, and I have a sedan, so no I dont know either

Just to verify, 5mm wheel spacers are safe with OEM studs, correct?

Whoops forgot to mention that. Our last meet was in Grapevine to keep it central for people coming from Ft. Worth as well. I'm pretty sure we'll have it in the same area.

Here's the local DFW facebook page where most of the discussing takes place. I'm sure a thread will be up soon to in the DFW section.

And it's full Z suspension from an '06 Z. If you put Z springs on regular sedan non-sport shocks, you'll get premature wear. Feel free to send a PM if you want to know more.

as long as you can get the lug nut to turn 5 times on each stud you should be fine.
unless you are going to use 5mm washer rather than an actual plate. the washers leave a gap between your wheel ad create something (I can't think of the name right now) and this gap can lead to a wheel falling off.

There's no way in hell I'm putting washers on there.

Are you sure about those specs? Doesn't look like that from the pictures man.
My 19" Enkei G37S Rims are spec'd VERY close to the same as what you posted and I'm not tucked in NEAR that much, I'm only 10-15mm from being flush. And I'm much lower than you are also.
I'm no expert, not by a long shot, but based on the pictures, and what I have seen in person, those specs you wrote are wrong, IMO

Also, this isn't the place for those types of questions really, there are numerous wheel/tire, suspension, fitment threads for specifically these questions with a bunch of stretch/poke OG's that can easily help get you rolling in the right direction
First of, thanks for the reply man!

The specs I gave are correct. I think we're about the same height minus the front. That's why I wanted to drop that **** up. With your picture, did you have spacers installed already?

Does anyone know how much whp to expect from the mrev2, 5/16 spacer, art pipes and uprev tune?

Just trying to keep my hopes in check and figure out if the mods are worth it. In total theyre costing me 15% of how much I paid for the car a year ago with 60000 km on it.

Thanks

The MREV lower is a modified version of the plenium you already have. HP gains on non-Revup motors would be marginal at best, spend your money on something else.

Is your sedan an 05-06 6mt?
