14mm Spacer or ST Plenum
I have just fitted a TT T38 to my engine and run a 4x4 inlet, would it be a good idea to fit a 14mm spacer to my 4x4 inlet or ST Plenum ?

try the ps3 network and the game WAW
ST inlet will be fine and as for the spacer i tested on and worked well and is a cheaper option if you dont have a st inlet already

10mm or 14mm spacer works well on mine so will advise that to you. unless you have the £200 or so laying about for a ST plenum

14mm is easier to use as you dont have to mod the fuel rail fixings

14 but putting the 10 on made fuck all difference to the map i think. Will have to ask Mark if he remembers. Has now been mapped again (obviously) with the cam which did make a difference
. Had to put more fuel in as it was running lean top end
