good idea, fucked up pricetag

Jesus Christ. Never buy anything from eBay.

It is a good idea and a decent price, but it would require a custom tmic or fmic setup to work. I think it's more work than its worth for the small difference it would make.

all you do is just tighten 4 bolts...


OP:

Its a waste of money on these cars. invest your money into a thermal gasket for the IM if you want something like that.

You'd be better off spending that money on hookers and booze

Monotonous ONE 07-22-2012 04:43 AM

fuck these guys

buy it and let us know how it goes

It's a spacer made by raceroots. It's very expensive and would require some custom work to net no change in power. Don't listen to the guy who told you not to buy anything on eBay. I buy plenty of stuff and it's fine, you just need to know what is ok and what is not. This one is not worth the work or money you need to put into it.

You forgot the part where you need to make a custom intercooler setup because the throttle body sits an inch farther out now...

Also the extended harness for the bat sensor.

Seen it and wondered the same thing, but I would much rather spend my money on a TIG's. Keep in mind if its bad ass and cheap, you would more than likely see it posted around here a lot.........

Wow i know how you guys feel about this, i bought a lot stuff in ebay and i know for the fact is good stuff.probably most of the parts ya'll using is made in china and the motorsports your buying it from is double or even triple the price they sell to you. Apples parts are made in china and its built there, so quit dissing china stuff in ebay.

That was the worst best most confusing logical paragraph I've ever read.
Kudos op, kudos...

You will have to get a cover for the maf sensor in the intake, and about the spacer in throttle body its actually better because it separates heat from intake manifold.
