Just wanted to get some info from you guys on a throttle body spacer. My buddy is running one on his 97 4.0 and says its awesome. Just wondering if any of you jeepers have one and if it's worth it or not.

 

I got one on my jeep. Scored it at local jy for $3. I like it better throttle response and 1 more mpg. Gain a little more power in take off. Mines the high preformance helix

 

They are junk. The previous owner put one on my jeep and I took it off. Hated the stupid whistle when I changed gears. It does make a good paper weight though.

 

They're absolute horse****.

 

That's all I noticed... made that mistake long ago and even bought it from Rustys LOL

 

Its snake oil don't bother with one.Now having the throttle body bored will show more throttle response.

 

If these worked they put them on at the factory.

 

Kinda like putting playing cards in the spokes of your Stingray bicycle.......

 

Thanks for the info every one. Probably just going to save my money and put it towards the spectre cold air induction.

 

Like this one?

 

Haha no thanks. This one

 

They are a complete waste of money and do nothing for you. Snake oil, anyone?

 

Did you also clean your throttle body at the same time?

 

Must have, because getting 1 more MPG requires something major for the 4.0L, like a complete cat-back exhaust.

 

The spectre is nice man. Easy to install. Raises your intake up a bit. My Stroker runs a bit lean With 24LB injectors so obviously enough air gets through them.
The do make a little noise on the inside. Some people like it.. some hate it. Ive had mine for probably about 4-5 years now. I did have to replace one rubber neck for 8$`

I think the cheapest place to get one right now is Advanced Auto with a coupon.

TB spacer is a waste of money.
