not on our cars if I remember correctly, they're good if you want to inject nitrous directly into the throttle body...

yup.

bottom line: if you want power gains, for the same price you can buy a larger throttle body and that will actually give you power gains.

i actually started a thread in performance on this a while back... basically everybody reitterated the fact to me that on our cars theyre almost useless... unless that is, you are planning on running nitrous, or somother kind of injection that needs to go through the intake.(i.e. alcohol injection, etc...) all it really does is prevent driling into the runners of the intake, or anyother spot for that matter. but its not really worth it otherwise, because it doesnt really do anything.

good luck dude!

If you get the polished ones they make pretty paper weights !

What a TB spacer does it bend the air flow per say. The only way you need one is if you can empty out your intake plemun before you car has hit redline. So if your engine is for 6000RPM, but at 4500RPM power falls totally off, then yeah you need a TB spacer.
