Don't take it out!!! Have tried this mod and didn't like the results. It cut throttle response and low end snap. Revved a little slower as well, Moose makes a larger one that adds low end and didn't take any away on top!

Want more top end?? Unless you want to pay for porting, a pipe and silencer would be your best bet.

I bought the VForce Reed block and called them to ask if I should leave the spacer on.... The tech said definately leave it in, even with the new reed block.
