givememorepower Posted July 16, 2009 Author Posted July 16, 2009 lllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllogged of my laptop and restarted it and she works Need to splash some cash at a Vaio I reckon. Dirty Advents! I just put a new hard drive in this baby as I paid £700 nicker for this a couple of years ago o resolve silly problems like my L key. Waste of time. Should have put it to an exhaust or spacer Quote
BladesGrant Posted July 16, 2009 Posted July 16, 2009 If you want to hold off a little there is a carbon plenum with moulded spacer being produced based on the stock plenum and spacer. Its going to cost £250 which is only about £20 more than a spacer alone, then you get to sell your spare plenum. Other than that you are looking at trying to get a 2nd one!! Quote

givememorepower Posted July 16, 2009 Author Posted July 16, 2009 Yeah I'm aware of the carbon plenum. Just concerned it splits or cracks, and my insurance company will have to be notified so I'd have to part with more pennies. Quote

Will more than likely be stronger than most aftermarket plenums (although not the spacer and stock). Plus I believe its coming with a gaurantee. Quote
givememorepower Posted July 16, 2009 Author Posted July 16, 2009 I'll wait and see. Just want to get cracking as I have next week free from work and wanted an excuse to use some light tools over a couple of easy days in the sunshine with some coldies Quote

givememorepower Posted July 16, 2009 Author Posted July 16, 2009 Yeah sure, write them down and I'll pop round early monday morning, say around 0800? Quote
givememorepower Posted July 16, 2009 Author Posted July 16, 2009 So what is the difference between me getting a : 1.Standard spacer? 2.Thermal spacer? 3.Copper spacer? Quote
BladesGrant Posted July 16, 2009 Posted July 16, 2009 I think its just to do with the heat that they conduct but I could be wrong. The more expensive ones will sty cooler and there give you lower engine temps and keep the air cooler. I could be totally wrong though!! Quote
scottsoulby Posted July 16, 2009 Posted July 16, 2009 Now then, if you hold out until my carbon plenum is up and going I'll be selling my motordyne spacer and maybe a polished plenum As for stength of the carbon plenum, it won't crack.. If it did which is highly unlikely, it would be replaced within the 12 months Quote
givememorepower Posted July 16, 2009 Author Posted July 16, 2009 Stop throwing a11 of these options at me confused now! How many mi1es has your spacer and p1enum covered? And cou1d you pm me your price for these. I haven't ru1ed out your carbon p1enum yet, wou1d need to contact my insurance though if I did that. Any ideas on timesca1es for your carbon operation? Cheers. Quote
scottsoulby Posted July 16, 2009 Posted July 16, 2009 The spacer on my car has covered approx 750 miles, although I got it off Paul(p15sult) I'm not sure if he used it or not? As for the carbon plenum, as soon as I get the spare which should be next week, he said it would take approx 2 weeks for the mould to be done Quote
