Throttle Body Spacer


Recommended Posts

Posted

I've had a TBS on my truck for a little while now, not sure if it has even helped so I was wondering should I just go ahead and remove it or just keep it on.

It shouldn't be doing anything for you except a nice whisle... depending on brand. I'd remove it. :thumbs:

 

Log some miles and see once you take it off if it's changed anything just for your own piece of mind.

i put a spacer on my truck, it picked up 1.1 seconds in 0-60 mph test,,,so the programmer says

 

Just so you know.. a decrease of 1.1 seconds in 0-60 time for our trucks equates to roughly 50-60 HP increase.

 

So what you basically just posted is that your throttle body gave you the same performance that others spend a lot of money for via a supercharger.......

Nope, just thought you'd like to know you have 50 more HP. :thumbs:

If one is good, perhaps two would be better?

 

 

I think three should do the trick, oh and add one of those tornado things inside the intake tube also.

i have the jet (whistle-less) tbi spacer installed. during the winter the avg. mpg i was getting was 14-14.3. since installing the tbi i have yet to see anything below 14.8. SO, in my application i have seen a .5 MPG increase.

 

no noticable torque, or HP gains though. atleast not from the seat of my pants

Yeah I dont think mine whistles like some people say they do but Its def. just a big chunk of metal with some groves on it lol. Ill probably be taking it off anyways to see the difference.
