As a manufacturer or custom throttle body spacers i am appalled at everyone ignorance. my independent testing shows huge performance gains with a simple bolt on part. more information about my TB spacers can be found here: https://dodgeforum.com/m_607114/mpag.../tm.htm#607114

LOL I forgot all about that post. those tb spacers are the best ones out there. they give you the most gain too.

and as horatio said that only on a carb or throttle body injection engine you will see a difference. I had a 4" carb spacer on 88 ranger when I put a 302 ho in it. it gave it more top end power.

people like you keepthose companysin buisness. you should look into getting an electric supercharger too.

Kurby, have you released the Type T setup yet? I will take 6, however, I will be mounting them in my exhaust for a turbo setup.

the type T is still in development. we are having a problem with the air moving so fast its breaking the sound barrier inside the intake manifold. i may have to de-tune the setup by removing 1.34 sq inches of sticker surface area. power improvements should still be well over 100HP with the de-tuned setup though

I have99 Dakota with a 318/5.2. I have a Crane Throttle body spacer and it gave me noticable torque and horsepower in low rpms. It does make a difference. I think its would only be worth the money if you have a Cold Air Intake though. I would only buy a name brand Throttle body spacer though.
