Dont waste your money. They are only good on engines with a carb.

You could by one and use it to inject nitrous into the intake

with mine i can tell a little bit like you said with torque. you can feel it off the light. for $50 not bad in my opinion, and you get the whistle noise too

F'ing useless. Pay $50 for an intake or e-fan. You will be happier.

In my humble racing experience, I have never seen a throttle body spacer on a race car. Carb'd vehicles are different...they are not fuel injected. They can use all the atomization they can get.

Im doing my efan conversion in July. I plan on wiring the controller first, and once I am positive it is functioning 100%, Ill put the fan in. Alot of guys put the fan in, and then they cant figure out the wiring so they are screwed. So I suggest you get the controller wired up first, and run the clutch fan as long as you have to.
