Cool stack 2 airaid throttle body spacers?

Hey everyone,
When i bought a Airaid throttle body spacer for my 03 jeep grand cherokee, 4.0l I6, i noticed a super increase in performance, no hesitation, and can cruise 95 or more, barely touching the gas pedal on the highway. I have saved a ton of gas when driving on the highway. getting around 30 mpg to 32 highway, and 22 city. But have done some tampering with exhaust, (will not mention) But it freakin ROOOAAARRRSSSSS
But anyhow, Has anybody stacked 2 of the same spacers under a throttle body?

I know this sounds retarded, but thought it might be a cool thing to try and maybe find out results for. Dont have cash right now, and very impatient to find out. since i love doing mods with my jeep. lol

I realllly would love to see how you figured those MPG numbers. I don't think you could get 30mpg out of the 4.0 in neutral rolling down a mountain with a strong tail wind.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! The only time a jeep gets 30mpg is being pushed down a hill, no motor, trans, and headed to where all bull**** goes. Obviously this guys garage where the laws of physics have no reign. I bet his jeep also runs a 11 sec quarter mile.... And runs on unicorn farts

Modified by a real wizard too.
If I knew I could get those numbers, I wouldn't be renting a car for my trip to NY in July.

I stacked 3 spacers on my DD but had issues with the bolts so I covered the entire intake in Monster Energy stickers after tinting my headlights. Definitely gained 40 HP and get 35 MPG city now.
