please dont get me wrong, i see the theory of keeping cooler intake manifolds so the air traveling thru them does not get heated up as much. but for the cooling effects to be transferred backwards 3 steps im not seeing. have you ever installed a spacer setup on just one side and then took the car to get them warmed up and shot each intake manifold with a laser thermometer to see the difference?
