Stew Posted September 23, 2010 Share Posted September 23, 2010 I have had one on for 3 years anyway.... It negates the need for a spacer however there have been issues with them cracking in the states. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Posted September 23, 2010 Share Posted September 23, 2010 I had one for a while, never had any issues with it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andlid Posted September 23, 2010 Share Posted September 23, 2010 is the cracking issues not the problem when you FI the cars? Same was with the SSV velocity one that I have but got V2 that supossed to withstand 50psi or so... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stew Posted September 23, 2010 Share Posted September 23, 2010 I believe it might be more apparent on FI cars. I've never had an issue with mine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1973safc Posted October 9, 2010 Share Posted October 9, 2010 so are these worth buying instead of the plenum spacers??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andlid Posted October 9, 2010 Share Posted October 9, 2010 so are these worth buying instead of the plenum spacers??? similar to getting a spacer... not sure if they keep the engine a bit cooler? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rtbiscuit Posted October 9, 2010 Share Posted October 9, 2010 adam at Z1 auto doesn't rate them; never tried one, don't think you'll notice any difference but it will make the engine bay tidier and save you having to polish your old plenum. plus if you get them from kinetix they come with a gaurentee. so if it does crack you'll get a new one. check out their website.

Adam@Z1auto.com Posted October 13, 2010 Share Posted October 13, 2010 get yourself a spacer...no chance of it cracking and, no need to go through the hassle of getting a replacement Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
