Installed mine this morning and I already feel the torque. Also idle is a lot smoother.

Here is my impression on the 12mm plenum spacer.

I haven't had a chance to dyno the plenum spacer like I wanted to so I can't say how much gain the plenum spacer offer, but going off my butt dyno, the "feel" is not the same as when I had first installed the 25mm insulator, but I wouldn't expect the same type of gain as the 25mm insulator because the effect of extra plenum volume is much different than what a intake manifold insulator does.

The main thing I noticed as I mentioned awhile back is that there's much less knock. Usually there would be about 3* of KR at part throttle from about 2k rpm and goes up to about 4*-5* by 4k rpm. After the plenum spacer there's 0 kr from 2k rpm and does not start to reappear until about 3500rpm but with much less kr. I was actually very surprised by this and vince had to actually recheck my tune to make sure that I was not running with kr desensitized adjustment

Our LLT is very kr active naturally. 1* of less kr mean more stable power!

The torque seem to be much more flatter after the spacer too.

Another nice one steve

Off topic but i have to ask. Will you have a group buy for both 25 mm isolator and plenum spacer. I think alot of v6 members would jump on this.
