Cool Intake Spacer/Throttle Body Spacer

Is an "intake spacer" the same as a "throttle body spacer?"

I have heard that they will actually take away HP on the Mustang, however I also see that alot of people in here are buying one from this guy who makes his own.

Any comments would be much appreciated!!!!

Is this what it looks like? http://www.mach1registry.org/photopo...731&ppuser=102

no, they are two different things. and it's not that they add peak HP (which is what most ppl look at)...it'll add power throughout the curve which is more important. with the intake spacer what it is doing is allowing the fuel to atomize and form a better A/F mixture which lead to a lfatter power curve which is a good thing...you might see 4-6rwhp gain and and 8-10rwtq gain if that is your only mod. BUT you will gian that throughout the ENTIRE powerband (seeing a theme yet )
