P2R spacer and gaskets install - Page 3

till222 · 08-01-2007, 06:32 PM

I installed mine a few weeks ago everything worked great. I used the nuts off the bolts on the throttle body to loosen the studs. Very easy install overall, can feel slightly better throttle response.

Also, I'm going to have to take it all apart again and re-tighten that damned brass bolt (it's so far out it's touching the TB) tomorrow morning. Argh. Ran fine though, around a couple blocks. Honestly feels much more responsive down there in the low revs. butt-dyno, take it fwiw (BS)... will get to a dyno next week... sorry for no immediate before/after dynos...

how long did it take you to do this. i will be ordering it in the next few days so anymore advice would be great

Installation took me 40 minutes with 15 minutes of scraping old gasket off of the throttle body. I have a Fugita SRI.

I'm in Ventura County. I'm happy to help, but this is super easy...

GlxyGry06Si · 08-12-2007, 09:30 PM

y do you have to take the stud out.

MutantCheese · 08-12-2007, 09:31 PM

I'm in LA, but not the California one.

Yes, 2 studs, because you need to install longer studs

GlxyGry06Si · 08-12-2007, 09:33 PM

y cant you leave them on like the im gasket.

Yeah, follow the directions I have here (and take out the entire TB, if you wish), and let me or anyone else know if you stumble on anything; but I think it's pretty easy. If iomatic can do it, so can a three year-old.

MutantCheese · 08-12-2007, 11:18 PM

You take out 2 studs and 2 bolts. The kit comes with four long bolts.

I left ALL hoses hooked up to the throttle body. There was enough play to do what I needed.

The easiest way to remove the studs is to lock two nuts together back to back on the studs and then remove the stud.
