Good goin, Jon. When you have an opportunity, we would love to read your first impressions on the MREV2 and 5/16" spacer combo. Enjoy!

Pay no attention to David bro. He's just bent cuz he didn't get the 6MT. J/K mang!!!

Seriously though, I am very interested to see what results you get on your dyno run. I'm also gonna go with the MREV2 + 5/16 inch spacer set up when it comes available in early June.

I plan to do a full write up when I get the dyno, but as far as first impressions, I am impressed. I didn't really notice anything significant until 4k+, then the car really pulled. WOT sounded nice--good growl--thinking w/ exhaust would sound perfect. Had no idle issues whatsoever. When in neutral, car was very smooth and did not experience any howling or whistling that some others have reported, but I have stock intake. On the highway--reaching 100+ happens faster than usual
Even w/out a dyno yet, I believe this is a must N/A mod for Revups considering the price to gains. I'm thinking Thurs. will be dyno day..I will post as soon as is available.
