Did you have to use the engine cradle spacers when you installed that work of art?

Yeah Whipple sales guy told me 70-80 HP at my level which is likely bull, 30-35 WHP sounds more realistic. But they wanted $4595 plus shipping for the upgrade!?! Eff that lol

I did. It was too close for comfort without them when we mocked it all up.

What’s the bummer…? The Gen6 price tag or the spacers? Spacers we’re not a big deal at all FYI.

The spacers, as you now I am wanting to supercharge mine, and i am having a hard time visualizing the stance with the spacers.

The spacers left me in exactly the same situation I was in before I put them in…needing lowering springs…!

That is just it as I am already lowered, it looks like it a Procharger for me

Pardon my ignorance, but how does lowering the engine affect the car's stance?

The spacers lower the engine cradle which effectively raises the body as the suspension is bolted to the cradle

I would think the weight of the supercharger will offset that. When I bolted my 2.9 on(no spacers needed) it lowered the front slightly.

Agreed, I didn’t notice any big increase in wheel gap after installing the spacers.
