with just the spacer, i cant say. The port match and throttle body, yes a difference can be felt. I have not dynoed the car to prove or disprove the results though. The car seems to have a better throttle response at take off and mid range. It feels like the car has really opened up.
lost 4 ft/lb of tq at WOT at 2000rpms ( which you don't spend much time at ), and picked up about 4-6hp throughout the top end. additionally, the throttle response is awesome throughout the powerband as well. really feels different
i just retuned last week after the install. using e-manage ultimate.
i've got a koyo radiator also though so i can't tell you how much exactly the img is keeping things cooler even though i have defi gauges. i can say that with the koyo radiator and img the car runs at about 172-175 on the freeway. power is always ready too.

I know, I love my throttle response now. I need to dyno. Bad thing is, I have no before numbers and I have other mods, so it will be hard to tell how much each mod has increased or decreased power. I can feel the car is different though.
