    Well I think you will find a consensus that you will not add any gains with throttle body spacer. Better to put the funds towards a more proven HP/$ device.

    Now that's a classy LXF member. Been others that argue and swear, their GM it did this and yadayada. In the LX application you are better served applying those funds to better proven HP gains. Good luck and a bean for you.

    TB Spacers were meant originally for the carberated engine. That's where the whole thing started. On our engines, you're better off getting a bigger TB and probably the lower intake.

    I just got mine last night. Was the lower intake easy enough to do? It looks pretty straight forward. (sorry for the thread jacking)

    Lower was fairly easy to do, have new gaskets available and take your time.
