Well.. we don't have the perfect dyno that some would like to see in each mod sessions, but we can get some idea here with what I been doing from my time here since jan. of 2011

This is a on a dynojet that read about 5% lower than usual. Remember that!

MODS:

Vararam
VMAX ported TB
Trifecta Tune
BMORECAM cross Ram ported IM
MACE 25mm insulator
Header
Exhaust
3.91(If you know lower gears and inertia dynojet, then you know the dyno always see as it's making less power)

NO plenum spacer
NO Ported and gasket matched head(inlet) for this dyno!

We was going back on the dyno for the new tune development testing we been doing with vince on cam phasing and knock sensitivity, and was going to dyno the plenum cover and the matched and ported head(inlet), and was going to come back with the big ol 300 on the paper(GUARANTEED!) although we already know the car was making over 300 already(we know peoples just have to see evidence on papers), but.... it never happened due to many different reasons and situations, from bad timing, no communication, too much time going pass, etc.. but mainly due to vince going on vacation for 3 weeks and the development tune was running 14's AFR and no one had the chance to make a quick adjustment:(. Shortly after, I decided on a new mission, and that mission for me was no more camaro testing and developing was going to stop with myself personally. As most of you guys know, I've decided to sell and move onto something that suit me better but I was not going to leave you guys with nothing to fall back on So I've decided to give you guys a chance to experience what cross ram porting is all about! and one of the bigger contributing factor for a chance to give this little 3.6L more room to breath for 300+ with simple bolt ons. Still is not over LOL There's more surprises coming. I can't say nothing yet but those horns are looking very very promising Mr NAVY man

You guys have any questions or need any help, please do not never hesitate to email or PM me. I am not going anywhere! and I never have

Thanks Jay

Just to recap about the bolts for Mach's question, the washers are not used with the 160mm bolts

Hope this helps

Kindest Regards,
Steve

Jay would this plenum spacer work well with my RX ported IM and black ice? Also I'm boosting very soon.

I think I have read reports that it doesn't have nearly the same gains as combining with the 25 mm insulator, but this thing works great with the Black Ice product and the RX ported IM.

In case you are wondering I don't think you have to do anything to the plenum spacer physically, for example gasket matching on the Black Ice, to make this work.

Thanks Blade. I just might pull the trigger on this.

I agree with you man..thats a lot of money. But anyways I'll be very interested to see how your dynos turn out. Keep us informed!...or at least ME! lol

Jay you've always been a good buddy of mine here and I appreciate everything you've done. But you know me..I like to ask questions, cross my T's and dot the I's lol. I will be waiting to see other people's reactions, but I will say that at this point I'm pretty sure I'm going to end up with the cross ported IM

Ok I'm in the Army so that might explain why I'm slow . . . but is Bmore now part of the MACE team? PM me so I can understand wtf is going on!

And what's the difference between the "Cross ported IM" that MACE is selling and the RX ported IM (is that even out yet?)

Sorry again, I'm the slow Army guy!

Not at all you got it in one This way we can pretty much offer round the clock service

As the difference between manifolds I can't personally answer that one sorry

Hope this clears things up

Kindest Regards,
Steve

Mace/Bmore - looks like you have the East Coast covered . . . if you're interested in expanding out to the West Coast let me know - I'm moving to the San Francisco area in three weeks.

I also ave the Rex ported throttle bodies on and ready to install black ice tomorrow. I am considering the ported IM (mace or Rx) and plenum spacer. Would all these be compatible? Which Ported IM?

Please pm me a price and availability to 33139.
Plus any extra hardware/bolts needed etc...

If going to get the plenum spacer and IM. Do I wait for these or install black ice now?

Getting confused with all these parts coming out
Isolators, insulators, plenum spacers, ported throttle bodies, mace intake, Rx intake
What am I missing?

Thanks
