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

it is very worthy mate, i have a set of 10mm ones for a 1995 WRX that havent been used.

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! :eek:

Very worthwhile IMHO. :cool:

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

Carle, you sure you want 25mm??

David_Wallis 26 October 2005 12:26 PM

18 - 20mm should be fine for most applications :)

Imprezaturbs on 22b can supply them.

I also have access to these in 15mm Phenolic, PM for further info and I can put you in touch. Other thicknesses may well be available.

Contacted and getting 20mm ones from Imprezaturbs, cheers lads

Mo,

i'd be interested in some 20mm ones if it's possible?

No bonnet clearance issues with 15 - 20 mm inlet manifold raising ??

scoobboy 02 November 2005 08:45 PM

No think it can be raised nearly 30mm before any probs

will i need to move the power steering reservoir as well as spacers in order to fit an AVO turbo inlet pipe?

scoobboy 03 November 2005 01:31 PM

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
