No if you have (or plan on having) a strut tower brace and after market plennum. its going to raise the plennum too much and it wont let the intake pipe connect to the throttle body.

if you dont plan on getting the strut bar, or the upper plennum, for go it

yup, but like i said, the C&L plennum actually already increases the runner length, so it has somewhat the same effect that spacer would have.
