Adding AEM Brute Force, removing PoweRaid throttle body spacer

The previous owner installed a Poweraid TBS and I want to remove it. In August, I'll be adding a CAI, probably the AEM unit.

So, if I remove the TBS do I need to buy four new stock bolts for the throttle body? Or, will the longer ones from the TBS still work with the TBS removed?

Does the AEM unit affect those bolts at all?

my guess would be that it doesnt even use them, try downloading the directions online, and look at the final picture?

you will have to buy new bolts, the ones for the TBS are a 1" or so longer.

Thanks! Guess I'll be making a trip to the dealer for the bolts. Unless, does anyone know what size they are? Also, will I need any gaskets?

when taking out the throttle body you'll need new bolts for the stock intake but the brute force doesnt use the 4 mounts that hold the air box in place. It only uses the one bolt holding the intake tube in place.
