Default How about this??!?!

Fist of all- does an intake spacer make any bit of difference when combined with a 75mm throttle body and plenum. I am thinking about buying the hi-flow BBK combo from mustang tuning, and adding in an intake spacer, Will these be a good setup, any feedback on BBK??

Save the money for the intake spacer and get somthing else.I've never seen an increase in power with a spacer on a Mustang.

you will absolutey see a difference in power, even if its only a 1/10th of a horsepower, it can be seen, even on the smallest scale of measurement. but im just being a smart *** =)

Someone was selling one on E-bay, CNC machined for $10. delivered, so I threw one on with the plenum. Did I expect results, no. Did I get discernable results, No. Why did I do it? Any increase in intake volume is a good thing, even small. It allows the air from the intake to straighten out it's flow from the elbow slightly, good thing. Bottom line, I was in there already, it cost about the same as a good Chili dog lunch delivered, so I said what the hell, and bought one.
