No, but it depends upon the application. On a stock engine it won't add noticeable hp. Even supercharged it's not worth spending $300+ when you can get something like this http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...K%3AMEWAX%3AIT and gain roughly the same power.

That looks good man, I've never seen that. Zabteck does something similar and changes the butterfly and stuff. I'd be skeptical about buying that ebay one though.

I actually found it from this thread. It's Jerry Strannigan's Ebay store.

1.
Buy BBK.
2.
Throw it away.
3.
Get exhaust.

ps
The added weight of a TB spacer
negates the HP increase of said TB spacer.
