    Throttle body spacer.

    Has anyone installed one? If so could you tell me if there were noticeable performance/ increased mpg changes. Really interested in putting one in.

    Or save yourself shipping + $35 and get it here, instead.

    Question A little help

    Hey who wouldn't want more power and better gas mileage? But I am leery by any promises without a description as to why it works. (even if I do not understand the explanation) Anyone get one of these? Does it work? Does anyone know why?

    I am interested in the real street feel and gas mileage results. I am also sceptical about the claims. If installed, let us know.

    How it works, supposedly:
    http://www.carsdirect.com/aftermarke...e-body-spacers

    Whether they work or not is debatable. There's a lot of info out there on the web....check it out. For the price of it....mmmmmm....I'm going to have to pass until someone gets it on a dyno.

    I'd be more interested in intake manifold spacers.

    There is always a ton of info on the web. But 99% of it is crap made up by people who want to sell it to you. On the Interweb you can create fake web pages and fake experts and pretty much fake anything you want. Thats why people need to understand the need for real sources like newspapers instead of reading what some 30 year old guy living in his parents basement writes.

    Can't even believe the newspapers anymore Circ. Everyone is such a hurry to be the first to get the "news" out there that they don't even verify half the stuff they put out.
    Now back to the topic at hand which I have no use full information to contribute
