Inlet manifold spacer Mod ??
Is the above a worthy mod to stop heat transfer from the block to the Manifold, or is it time spent for no real gain as such, I know it will allow for a front entry also if required.
Thanks
Dean

IIRC mine are 14mm and it's transformed the det.
Used to see the very odd second yellow when getting on for 7k, now i can go up to 7k and i'm lucky if i see the FIRST yellow!
Very worthwhile IMHO.

Hi,
Got a set of 10mm spacers made for my 1995 WRX but isnt enough for clearance of a TD05 FE, do you know where i could get a set 20 or 25mm.
Need these asap as car off the road
Cheers,
Carle

18 - 20mm should be fine for most applications 
Imprezaturbs on 22b can supply them.

You will either have to move it or buy a my99 reservoir and pump as this is what i did to use an sti inlet pipe under the manifold to my FE TD05
