Great all motor edition = NWP SPACERS

Edit TITLE Addition - posting after 12 hour work day leads to bad grammar.

So I have a 3.0 5spd. I have a mevi full header back exhaust and newly installed NWP spacers. First thing I did was test out how "thermal" they were. I drove the car around normal speeds for bout 20 minutes then felt the manifold it was ice cold (this is daytime and my engine was reading running temp). Then i Tested the car out and redlined through some gears a bunch of times Pulled over kept engine running and the manifolds were cold. I was amazed I took it to my friends house and tested it out and he too was shocked by the thermal dynamics of the spacers.

I haven't gone to the dyno yet but from the feel of them.

With my mevi fully closed- there is smoother much more powerful power through about 5000rpm.

With the mevi fully opened the car had good power til about 3800pm then it felt like normal til 5k then above 5 grand the mevi is in its rpm range so it takes off (but the top ends mainly from the mevi). Given the when the mevi is fully opened you lose mid range torque the spacers gain and mevi loss seem to balance out to my pre spacer power til the mevi starts gaining again.

Ive noticed my launched are better and the revs climb higher and smoother through the rpms.


Ill try and get to the dyno as soon as possible but two blow motor mounts are limiting how many times I can do high pulls.

Ill post as soon as i get them for real results. But in my opinion these things are amaing for great midrange, coupled with a mevi gives a power hose combination, and great cooling power to the engine, colder intake manifold = colder air = better runs.

nwp spacers ftw

nwp spacers ftw aarons a good guy. glad you had good results. Sounds like you need a type of rpm switch now. also sounds like you were majorly speeding (4th gear redline).

Well he was street racing himself,
Going fast on the freeway doesn't really
count but going fast on the freeway could
be just as dangerous and potentially get you
a ticket.

Org doesn't condone street racing dgriff858,
so just try not to say those things here bro.
(Leave it at you were testing your car)

I'm glad Aaron's products worked out great for you!
I've been hearing great reviews as well.

Im hoping to, hopefully gas is still around $2. It mostly depends if my gf will go with me cause I dont want to drive that far by myself, but during the summer I always look for a reason to do a road trip so Im hoping it works out for me.
