Throttle Body Spacer

MartinG83 · January 12th, 2007, 03:13 AM

Has anyone ever used a Throttle Body Spacer? Worth the $90 it costs?

My67_fastback · January 12th, 2007, 03:16 AM

depends. it increases airflow. it may add one or 2 horses, but combined with other mods it will multiply its effect (eg, increasing intake, then getting it out faster with headers, etc)

ppl here say its not worth it

Unless your highly highly modded it is useless spend the cash towards a CAI or bigger TB instead.

no spend that money on u/d pulleys if you really wanna gain... for not to much money

ByPopularDemand · January 12th, 2007, 11:52 AM

Yeah no TB spacer...A bigger TB will help only if you port the upper intake to match

Onemanzu · January 12th, 2007, 11:57 AM

yea... so for now go with some other boltons

ByPopularDemand · January 12th, 2007, 11:59 AM

Start with exhaust or UD's or a CAI

flames_blue · January 12th, 2007, 12:13 PM

Onemanzu · January 12th, 2007, 12:13 PM

you know what ima tell you that tis your choice... if you decide to get it tell us how it does... we all say no... but its your call

ByPopularDemand · January 12th, 2007, 12:15 PM

How is it supposed to increase mpg

Onemanzu · January 12th, 2007, 12:18 PM

technicly it burns more fuel ... i see it as decreasing the gas milage...

i say someone buys one and tests it on their car... and we will acctually see what it does...

but not on my car it wont fit

flames_blue · January 12th, 2007, 12:19 PM

I was plannin on getting one but I wasn't sure if it would be worth the money just yet so I was planning on getting some other stuff first

ByPopularDemand · January 12th, 2007, 12:19 PM

Yeah thats what I mean...what is the companies explanation as to how it improves mpg

flames_blue · January 12th, 2007, 12:19 PM

Onemanzu · January 12th, 2007, 12:20 PM
