Talking Loving it!

Man i cant explain how happy i am with the 5/6 spacer and my mrev2 upgrade...

Its like a new G lol didnt end up doing the dyno because there was no way to do same day dyno considering i was at work while my mechanics in the back were putting it on for me, but butt dyno has been more than enough to make me smile everytime i drive.
I find myself taking the long way home from work now lol, cannot get enough of it. The first drive was awsome even though i didnt stretch it jus pulling out in second gear was great, and when i got back to my dealership as i was walking up one of my saleswoman here looked at me and could just see i was shinning lol.

Next Highflow cats, i think im going to keep the stock exhaust for now until i go FI.

All in all great mod for the money my satisfaction is furfilled.
Definatly recommend for anyone starting out N/A
GL to all
Later

-Rafael

I'm sure you probably noticed a little bit of an exhaust note change as well. When I put on my Z-Tube and the spacer, the exhaust got very noticeably louder and the tone changed a lot.

just a suggestion for posts like this one.


We have lots of new members on this site and they are all interested in moding their cars.

So you guys that did or do mod your cars. When you post a "Results" threads like that, why don't you post maybe pictures and links to the site where this product could be purchased so that in the future will not be asking bunch of questions.

Hey so how does the 5/16 differ from the new Manifold that is put out by Kintex? Both list the same HP gain, but the new mani is almost 700 bucks more. Has anyone opted for the new mani for performance is is the spacer just as good.

Well, I believe the OP got both the MREV + and the 5/16 Spacer. How much is that Kenetix Manifold?

I've been wanting to do this MREV+ and 5/16 Spacer for a while now but still haven't had the inclination to get off my **** and actually go buy it

I am jealous. Those are going to be my next upgrades. Did you order it all from Motordyne?

Yupp talked to Tony on the phone he hooked me up they way i like to be treated and it was all smooth sailing. Shipping only took 5 days. I cant wait for FI lol but that will be a while Motordyneengineering.com is where i placed the order, but i called and talked to Tony and they kept in touch the whole time it was being shipped to make sure i was satisfied, great customer service.

Next is the Z tube and High Flow Cats
I will keep it posted thanks for the replies guys

How much did it cost to have installed? This would be one of the only mods I want to make to my car, but I don't think I'm technically inclined enough to do it myself.

The exhaust tone is still the same beutiful tone a little louder and deeper but not too much difference, the install was free cause im friends with the mechanic that did it but i threw him 35 bucks for helping me out. I love the startup of the engine you can tell clearly that the engine has gotten beefier.

Definatly recommend i am loving it!

Yes, why would a plenum/intake mod change the exhaust sound? It gets only louder from the added air volume.
