What is the Power Spacer and why is one not included in every BRUTE FORCE kit?
The Power Spacer is a plenum spacer that installs in between the intake manifold and the throttle body. In about 5% of AEM Brute Force applications, AEM has found that increasing plenum volume increases power. AEM test each system they develop with various Power Spacer designs, and only include Power Spacers in BRUTE FORCE intake systems when they improve performance. AEM Power Spacers feature a smooth internal design that makes more power and does not whistle the way spacers with screw type inlets do. Because they do not increase performance on every application and are designed to work specifically with BRUTE FORCE intakes, AEM does not sell them separately and includes them in kits when they increase power. BRUTE FORCE applications in our search results indicate whether a system includes a spacer.
