Default Throttle body spacer

Hey everyone, im looking to put a tbi spacer in my truck but not sure exactly which one to get. And im sceptical to see if they are really even worth the money. I drive a lot so it wud be nice for the gas milage increase, but i also want my truck to have a little more ***** than it already does. I bought a new intake system for it, it was only $60 on ebay. and that increased it a little, just please help me out guys. thanks

if you want better milage id get an exhaust system it will make a nice diffrence plus sound nice as well. The Tb spacer really isnt worth it. i have the airraid tb spacer and the only reason i got it is for the neat sound it makes lol.

TB spacers are a waste of money unless you are carbeurated. There is a link in the Durango section that has a review of it and you actually lose a couple horsies. I'd do what Titan said and also get a CAI you will see an increase in power as well as fuel economy.

Mean Green is right, I saw NO DIFFERENCE at all with the spacer I put on my 5.2. I got much better results with headers, flowmaster and intake mods. Biggest gain was from superchip.
