Default Couple questions

Couple questions for my 06 GT. One of my friends has a cai off of his 04 GT I was just wondering if the pipe will work with my car or if they changed the throttle body at all. Also I was considering getting a tb spacer and a tune for my car since its daily driven. Is there a noticeable difference with the spacer or is it not worth money? Im not going to crazy mod wise right now just basics(headers xpipe cat back in the future)

the motor is different, 2v vs 3v, im dont have the 2v intake/tb sitting infront of me, but i would bet you its different and the layout under the hood is different.

skip the TB spacer, snake oil.

get the tune

You're a bit late for buying a TB spacer. It makes a really nice Xmas tree ornament. And when you and your friends have been drinking, it can become a great conversation starter regarding turning in your man-card. TB spacers are useless except for the dickwads that advertise them.
