Plenum to runner spacer...
I was thinking of fabricating a spacer between the Superram box and runners..I dont know what lenght yet but how would this affect the air flow/characteristics...

Wouldnt it be just the same as increasing runner length?
If that were the case, it would bring torque peaks down, but probably increase them some too. Hmm

It doesnt look hard fabbing an aluminum plate in between plumbed with nitrous nozzles.Or just different size spacer for different application (drag or street or towing
).To take it to to the nth degree
What if you raise it really high(cowl induction hood)which increases the distance between the TB and the rad support which will allow you to plum a bigger intake tract since the stock "Y' tract is very small.
BTW pls ignore this thread if you htink its stupid

I like the nitrous nozzle idea.

It's not changing the runner length but I've toyed with the idea of cutting the top off a stock plenum and adding a box on the top to increase the volume of the plenum, thus increasing the available volume of air. This, inconjunction with siameseing the intake would probably improve the stock TPI setup.
