Intake Manifold Spacer 4.0l Coming!

How hard is it to instal?

 

Bolts right up. Basically remove the intake plenum, drop in spacer, bolt back together. There's a few hoses and electrical connections, but nothing serious. Torque everything to factory spec.

 

Did you see notable gains from the intake spacer?

 

I dont have one.

 

Have you installed one before?

 

I've installed super chargers, I've removed and installed plenty of manifolds, it really is easy work.

 

Thx, I’ve installed a couple of manifolds for friends, just didn’t know if Toyota tried to make it hard as shit for tacomas.

 

What about making from thermoplastic or something to prevent engine heatsoak? Or it's not problem with this IM?

 

Hardest part is getting electrical connectors apart without using a few curse words.

 

I don’t think I’ve ever worked on a car without a few

 

Its a plastic IM so no real worry on head soak as the manifold isn't retaining much heat like the EJ Subaru motors.

 

It's easy, you can do it in under thirty minutes if you're halfway mechanically inclined. The only hangup is the metal bracket on the passenger side won't line up correctly with the lower bolt hole; there are pictures posted in this thread.
