plebpl Posted July 18, 2015 Posted July 18, 2015 Hi Guys, I fitted the complete motodyne plenum spacer to my car, after fitting it when I accelerate and take my foot of the gas the revs stay where they are and sometimes rise slightly for a few seconds before dropping like normal. The idle is fine and consistent, If I put the car under load there is a slight pshhh sound coming near the intake (is this normal after a spacer install?) Basically the car feels fine just the annoying rev issue, any ideas? Quote
ZMANALEX Posted July 18, 2015 Posted July 18, 2015 (edited) Retrace your steps as it appears to be an install issue. Read the MotorDyne PDF and pay particular attention to the resets on page 9. https://www.google.co.uk/?gws_rd=ssl#q=motordyne+spacer+install Alex. Edited July 18, 2015 by ZMANALEX Quote
plebpl Posted July 18, 2015 Author Posted July 18, 2015 Hi Alex, I have done the peddle dance and it does appear to be better, im still a bit worried about the sound though, when I listen to the engine bay whilst someone else revs it does appear to be coming straight from the cone so I don't think its a leak somewhere. Did you have a change in noise when fitting a spacer? Quote
ZMANALEX Posted July 18, 2015 Posted July 18, 2015 For power upgrades I don't fit spacers, only turbos: What intake are you running? Quote
plebpl Posted July 18, 2015 Author Posted July 18, 2015 Popcharger, Aha, let me rephrase the question, do you know if anyone else has noise after installing, To be fair it almost sounds like a turbo so I wouldn't say I don't like it. I only really hear it under high load, Quote
ZMANALEX Posted July 18, 2015 Posted July 18, 2015 C'mon all you plenum spacer and pop charger gurus, help this guy out and answer his question. We all know that a pop charger will lose you power and increase induction noise, however I do not think that is what he is asking. Quote
jumping350 Posted July 18, 2015 Posted July 18, 2015 have a look to see if the rubber bit around oil filler cap is trapped between the plenum 1 Quote

jumping350 Posted July 18, 2015 Posted July 18, 2015 (edited) oh lol never mind then must just be noise if no leaks Edited July 18, 2015 by jumping350 Quote
ZMANALEX Posted July 18, 2015 Posted July 18, 2015 oh lol never mind then must just be noise if no leaks I have already been told off for trying to provide a solution and not answering the OPs direct question. :lol: 1 Quote

KyleR Posted July 19, 2015 Posted July 19, 2015 Noise is fine, its just the sound of loads of air getting sucked in through a dense filter. Quote
