Use the money to buy a nice pine scented air freshener

I was thinking about adding one of those gizmos, but I thought it would push the useless K&N CAI too close to the fan and radiator....so I took the money I did not waste and took my wife to dinner....much better return on investment..ha

Thanks for all the help guys. Now to find something to spend my money on.... Maybe the wife.

If you put enough of them together at the end of a nylon rope, you can make a small boat anchor.

Pretty sure that a throttle body spacer is only usefull if it is a spacer between a carburator and the intake to keep some heat from transfering to the carb and give you a bit more air volume for more vaccuum. Fairly certain they do nothing on a FI vehicle.

Use the money as a deposit for a Blackbear tune. Then you can take the wife to dinner...rapidly.

That in combination with the Tornado = more horsepower!

That's not 100% true.... they do have a useful purpose on TBI vehicles since they work on much the same principle as a carb. On other styles of FI they're mostly useless though.
