Phenolic spacer
I purchased one but have not installed it yet. Keep reading some positive and negative stuff about it which I know is typical of any part. Just wanted to see how many are using it, gains or loss they had and if there was any clearance issues. Thanks in advance for you time.

it works as it is designed to.
the intake is cool to the touch ALL the time.
Hot summer days, the intake is ambient temperature, no where nearly as hot as the engine though

I have a JDM phenolic spacer installed on my Kenne Bell and it has worked great for over 3500 miles now. I think alot of the problems people are having are due to faulty installation.

With the spacer it is only warm after a pass or two. I did not dyno before and after, but the cooler plenum seems like it would translate into a cooler air charge. I am happy with mine.
