Memcal or Plenum Spacer???

[triple b]

Hey guys, I'm just wondering which would be more beneficial.

I have a manual VS 3.8L (ecotec) with a set of pacemaker extractors, high flow cat and 2.5in pipe and I'm wondering which item my money would be better spent on, a 12mm plenum spacer or a memcal.

Both items are $150

PERFORMANCE 12mm PLENUM/MANIFOLD SPACER! Holden V6 VS-VY - Mace Engineering Group

Memcals - Mace Engineering Group

Any advice is appreciated

go the mecal, i didnt notice anything with the plenum spacer, the 25mm manifold one is the good one

memcal... she'll be a bit more responsive, pull a bit harder... and the coolest part, she'll pull harder on E10 than on 91, and will have about the same fuel consumption... she'll get a bit more out of 98

I run it on 95, heard E10 will eat the rubbers and fuel lines due to the ethanol

Not trying to start a big war but E10 is useless. Don't bother using it. Your probably better off getting a memcal then the spacers.

unsure about that. i personally don't like E10 either, but i'm poor atm so i use it. and yes, she loves 95, and 98....

when it comes to eating fuel lines, that might vary from car to car, my neighbour has an immaculate 96 Lexcen, with 320+ on the clock an she runs like a dream! he's an older bloke, had her since 19,000km, and he's been looking after her ever since, no mods apart from a stereo, just really well cared for. He's been running E10 since it came out, and he hasn't had a single issue with it whatsoever...
