Throttle Body Spacers

Post by SONOMA915 »

Can someone give me actual improvements that they have gotten from this mod. I picked up one on e-bay for $33 bucks with free shipping, couldn't let that go.

I was thinking about getting one awhile back but HJ shied me away from it. He suggested my money could be spent better on other mods. But for 33 bucks what the heck, go for it.

It does make it easy to switch thermostats, and helps to align the air intake assembly after a 2" bodylift.

I'll admit that at that price it might be tempting. Don't expect gains in performance or mileage though.

To paraphrase Reed's words "It adds a splash of color too"

I won't be taking mine off, but the premium that I paid could have been better spent elsewhere, maybe?
