Good To Know
Q: Will this spacer work with the stock intake manifold? A: Yes, it is designed as a direct replacement spacer using factory manifold bolt locations, requiring no modification to the stock intake.
Q: Does this spacer require tuning? A: No, the small volume increase typically does not require a retune, but it can help optimize performance when combined with other intake modifications.
