Curious about the Helix TBS or TBSs in general
I was just curious if anyone has messed with aHelix Throttle Body Spacer or a Throttle Body Spacer in general? I know you normally would use them on a carb. engine, but how do they work for the TBI engines?Are they good, bad, or what? Looking for your opinions! Thanks in advance.

why normally on a carb setup? The idea is the same, cooling the vapors or whatever. If I had to tear into my engine I'd throw one on but otherwise I don't know that it is worth the effort.

I guess from what I hearing if I am going as far as taking the TB off, save my money on the spacer and forget it and buy a whole throttle body then?

Yup...
You caught on fast...
TBS makes a cool WHIIIIISH sound, and that's about it...
Throttle body, well, that's just a genius idea to buy one, definitely a no brainer there. :-)

yeah, as mentioned... the spacers are just a paper weight for our trucks. Dan the fast manhas a good T.B. and the price is very reasonable. I am going to order mine this spring sometime. (probably when the taxes get in.)
You can expect to see 10ish HP and TQ from it... thats what Dan tells me any who.
