If you have a Cold air intake will that make a throttle body spacer more effective?

 

main consensus is the tb spacer makes a nice paper weight.

they are actually usefull on carbed engines, useless on fuel injection for 99.9% of our applications

 

x2

they will work for a while then your ecm will recalibrate it self and no more gains

 

thank you fellas

 

hot air intakes just make noise and tb spacers do nothing.

 

TB spacer = waste of money.

 

buy a ported TB instead.

 

Don't know what that is....what is it?

 

TB that has been bored out

 

this will not do much with out other mod's you will make a little more power. but you could get a header for the same price and get more power from that

 

wrong.

i have every bolt on made for the 4.0 cept a chip. the bored TB was by far the most noticeable mod.

 

I got a throttle body spacer and cold air intake. Other than it sounding really cool i haven't noticed any real difference. It now sounds like a small turbo. Other than that no difference. I am actually starting to regret the cold air intake and i am thinking about going back to stock because now all i can do is worry about splashing mud and water into my intake.

 

really because the header makes more power on the dyno then the bored TB but what did you do first the intake or exhaust. never mind i saw you have the older model with the smaller intake manifold so the extra air coming in probably helped you more then on the 1997 plus models with the larger manifolds

 

Where do i get my cute little tb spacer bored out or how?

 

its not the spacer that is bored out. its the Throttle body itself. Theres quite a few performance shops that will do them. It will help you with throttle response, may gain u a bit of power. I had really good results with mine...but i also have a 2.5" cat back exhaust and a less restrictive intake.
