Should i buy a throttle body spacer? and how do i install it
HI, i am new to these forums and I was just wondering if a throttle body spacer was worth investing in, and if so how do i install it. and how much hp would it add?
The spacers are not worth a dime, same as aftermarket throttle bodies. If you were to get one, the install would be simple. You just remove the throttle body by removing four bolts and screw it in.

Just search around on this forum, it may take a while to figure things out (which is why newbies post redundant threads) but it's worth it. Good luck and listen to most of the people, alot of them know a lot

I have a spacer on mine. It was'nt that hard to put on or take off. You may have to make a gasket for the side that mates with the throttle body. The other gasket should stay in the plastic intake manifold.Just put your spacer on quality gasket material and trace the spacer and mounting holes , then cut it out. DON'T OVER TIGHTEN BOLTS. It does create a "whisle" sound upon acceleration. As far as horespower gains,I have seen none. The theroy comes from the "high rise" intake manifold, more air in mixture.
