IF . . . you are racing where 10ths make a difference

AND

IF . . . you are running enough to get the engine realy hot

THEN . . .

It might be worth it.

Well, I wish they gave a little more background on how it works (may be there but am tired) Wasn't obvious on the home page.

$99 for gaskets!!!

Quote from home page,

"What a difference they make in response while driving. My car accelerates instantly from any speed with no hesitation at all. Thanks for a wonderful product and I will recommend them to everyone."


Gee, My OEM Pilot accelerates instantly from any speed with no hesitation at all!!

In general, spacers like this are used to isolate the intake manifold and fuel injection system from the heat of the engine head.

They are important in SERIOUS racing.

They might look cool to ricers.

My 05 Pilot eats too much gas.

The Pilot is quick but the 06 Rav 4 is quicker with better gas mileage....

I think Toyota engines are a lot smoother than Honda... I had driven both...
Why continue to torture yourself?

Go get the Toyota right now.

I`m drooling over the New V6 Rav 4. I have to wait for a year or 2 for them to fix any problem with the new model... by that time my Honda lease is over.

I don`t think I`ll ever drive a smaller car again.


I`ve been a honda fan since 1995 (95-civic ex, 2000 Integra Type R,
2002 Crv ex, 05 Pilot Ex.) I think Toyota engines are a lot smoother than Honda... I had driven both...
Smaller cargo room and 20 mpg rating? How about more cabin space and my Pilot has averaged 19 mpg last year.

Rav 4 quicker and never drive a small car again? The Rav 4 IS a smaller car!

Toyota engines smoother? Must be accumulated sludge that make them smoother.

Maybe the 2007 Rav4 will come equipped with a rear bumper.
