Collection: Intake Plenum Spacers

Intake plenum spacers, also known as manifold spacers, are aftermarket components that are inserted between the intake manifold & the engine block or cylinder heads. They serve to increase the height of the intake plenum, creating additional space for the incoming air before it enters the engine cylinders. This spacer design can help improve the airflow characteristics by increasing the volume of the intake plenum & changing the air velocity profiles. By promoting better air distribution & reducing turbulence, intake plenum spacers can potentially enhance engine performance & throttle response. Additionally, these spacers can provide a slight increase in the intake manifold's internal volume, which may benefit engines that operate at higher RPMs or require improved volumetric efficiency. However, the effectiveness of intake plenum spacers can vary depending on the specific engine & intake system design. It is important to choose a spacer that is compatible with the vehicle's intake manifold & to ensure proper installation & sealing to prevent any air leaks. Consulting with a knowledgeable professional or researching specific applications is recommended to determine if an intake plenum spacer is suitable for your vehicle & performance goals.
