Default Throttle body spacer?????

Does anybody think that a throttle body spacer would be worth getting?

Still waiting for someone to post a before and after dyno. Rumor has it that it may actually produce a few HP. It works sort of how the turbonator is supposed to, except it does not introduce any restriction. (If you get the kind that is rifled)

I'd be willing to give it a shot, but i think with the added spacer, i don't think my stock tube and airbox will still all fit up right. Esp where the tube bolts to the plenum. I already had a little problem after installing my V+. I contacted the guy that makes the rifled ones (You can see them in the above post from G35 driver) He has Silver only for the Z for $75 shipped. I asked for pics, i will post if/when he sends some.

You won't see any gains from the spacer alone. The only reason to have one is to tap for nitrous or water/meth injection.

I may be running one soon, but it will be part of a water/meth setup.
