MAPerformance releases revamped Phenolic Spacer for Evo 8 / 9
#36
Free bump from a Hondata spacer victim here. Been having idle issues shortly after a CBRD turbo install. Had my mechanic buddy dig into the issue and he found the Hondata phenolic spacer melted around cylinder 4 "making a sad clowny face" in his words.

A competitor did do a dyno test on a Hyundai Genesis with and without the spacer and I believe it showed a consistent 8-10whp increase. Now I know different cars will yeild different results, but I'm hoping there will be one available for the Evo X when I pick one up!

These type of phenolic spacer do not require IM gaskets do they? Using these things make me wonder how well they seal. On an N/A application I wouldn't care but F/I would cause some major issues.

I have one and they do not have the EGR hole anymore and they recommended to buy an intake manifold gasket for each side of the spacer which I did.
