Throttle body spacer.
Are they worth it?
Even just for mileage or something I think it would be worth the 120 bucks.
But will a spacer even do anything?

Does nothing but make noise on a fuel injected engine.

Good thing the Search Engine is down, or I'd be all over this. Last count, there were over 150 threads on the subject.

OP - save yer money, sir.
