yea these things are rated at like 25+ HP...one of the best mods for your truck

EDIT: I just checked...it turns out that im an ******* and the throttle body spacer makes a better paperweight than performance mod...

from my understanding the spacers don't do anything for fuel injected engines

i had one on my 03 hemi and like it better without it, kinda killed throttle responce but i did feel the slightest gain from it but not enough to be worth it. just pulled a little bit harder but nothing worth buying
