Me and many guys on here never had more then a key fob space. Before the insulator it wasn't possible to get 3/4" for me. I am happy with the gap I have now bc the car pulls so hard.

I have a lot of room on mine now, but that's without the spacer ....just weird how we are all so different with this ...but if it works for you, that's awesome. Thanks for taking the time to do this, and everyone here for their research. I love my VR, and that "pull" you get as it climbs ...very good news for us "Ramming"

Bemore....

It's starting to get really exciting for the LLT. I just changed my oil and decided to show my dad what a difference the 25mm Maceolator made. So I start moving and get to about 10mph then mash the gas pedal and my tires start roasting.

Love my 25mm Mace Insulator.

I did all of the porting myself but my co worker Bob looked over the whole process and basically told me where to focus on, and how to do it. He worked with NASCAR engineering team for over 20 years, now semi retired. didn't believe at first but the dyno definitely proves his experience

Perhaps you and Bob should start a buisness.

I could be wrong, but I think he's talking about a different IM than the one in his old thread.
That "stage3" belongs to Hapisok I think.

I'm hoping the "new" IM is something requiring less ability (and effort).
