Throttle body spacer results.
Yeah yeah I know...who cares any more right? No need to start flame wars here at all; Im just going to give some info about my test w/o the TBS and then with it.
I drove the car around doing all kinds of different driving for about 10 min. then I let the car cool down and installed the TBS.
After doing so, I went back and did the same driving for another 10 min.
I feel as if acceleration has improved with the TBS and it seems to have more power under heavy acceeration. The engine runs smooth and pulls hard.I will also check for any changes in gas milage as time goes on. I am on the side that saythrottle body spacers do help now. It is no night and day difference, but I feel that there is one. And the sound it makes it just cool.
(BTW it is the MMR spacer)--looks like 1/2" and its smooth inside.
