XTP Intake Manifold Spacer 4.0L

I was asking because it matters where I have it shipped.

 

Order placed! I’ve also ordered gaskets for the intake manifold and throttle body. May record the install and upload it to my YouTube channel, if I don’t get lazy lol

 

Anyone know what the bolt torque spec is for the IM bolts?

 

LOOKS LIKE 15 FT-LBS, BUT THEY HAVE IT WORDED STRANGE, SO........ILL KEEP LOOKING. IF I FIND SOMETHING DIFFERENT ILL POST IF NOT GO WITH 15.

Edit: I ran out of time and did not find any other torque spec.

 

28 Nm/21 ftlb (step 134 of the Magnuson supercharger install guide...sounds about right considering we're dealing with plastic bits.)

Just ordered mine...

 

Yes I'm sorry, the wait may take several weeks. It just happens that you guys hit me up for the GB as I had just exhausted my excess stock from recent sales. I had already put in an order on spacers for another vehicle prior; and that I just picked up. This is kind of why I posted a bit ago to gauge interest in my thread. Was just trying get a jump on order time. I get put back into the cue again so other customers are ahead of me. Since their orders are in the thousands + I have to wait for mill time. And not to pull anyone from the group I but I do have some in stock for normal purchase at the members price of 215.00 if someone doesn't want to wait.

 

Thanks for the heads up. With that I’m out, for now. Might go ahead and make my own. I think it would be good practice to wait to take peoples $ until you have a firmer ETA

 

If you had the equipment, material, and design why not have done that from the get go?
This isn't his fault, he was gauging interest and we all went head strong into it. I reached out via email so I could give you guys an answer as to if he could do it or not...he said he could and honored the price but the speed at which we wanted to get our orders in was not anticipated.
I would actually take some responsibility myself. OP wasn't super active so I was relaying his and my conversation because people wanted an answer. He had like 2 orders in when he made sure to let people know the manufacturing could take time.

 

It’s all good. I’m not mad. The simple answer is because I’m lazy. But also impatient lol

 

Fastest evolving group buy I’ve been involved in. I won’t have the extra cash till the 1st of May.

 

Ummm... this isn’t sitting good with me. $20 bump to get it earlier. Not really a honest way of selling in my book.

 

Any negs on adding a manifold spacer. I’m Debating to get one, but have not and no intentions on doing any motor work. I’m content with my bone stock 4.0 and want it to get a million miles on it lololol.

 

This definitely makes more sense OP, I mean you'll have stock replenished at the updated price, it'd all come out in the wash. Why not ship what you can at least? I don't think most people are that particular on color.

 

What he said...

 

I have 3 or 4 in stock. They are reserved for people that buy as a normal customer and pay normal prices that know nothing about member prices or group buys. I cant make someone who finds the website on their own or through whatever research wait weeks. The point of a group buy it to get a better price, along with that comes generally certain criteria. Getting certain numbers, waiting, pre-ordering etc. Whatever that may be. I've been in group buys myself and there are always some sort of parameters that go with them. Yes, most certainly if I had a large amount of stock, or course I would use them for the GB which is what I tried to do from the beginning. 4 parts is not going to fix that. Sorry, didn't mean for it to seem like I was sitting on a bunch of stock. All money is still sitting where it was sent in PayPal. Anyone that wants out can request a refund. Like I earlier stated, I asked about the interest, when I didn't get much response I went ahead and had my Nissan order made. As I was picking them up I was approached about this group buy. Its just a timing issue, other than that all is still a go.

 

Totally understandable if you ask me; you still have my business and order . Thanks again for offering this to us.

 

Very fair, again I'm happy to wait. I know this whole thing happened very quickly. I've had my truck for over 3 years without the spacer, a few more weeks isn't going to bother me at all.
