Can I marry a K&N to a throttle body spacer?

I was wondering if I can install a throttle body spacer between the K&N 63-2556 Aircharger and the throttle body on a 2005 F150 5.4 3V. Would I even want to? Is there such a thing as too much horsepower. Am I putting my torque converter in jeopardy? What are the winning lottery numbers for Michigan's Power Ball? Mr. Wizard get me the ******* out of here!

Throttle spacers are junk. Use the search feature because it would take to long to explain it.

you would be loseing HP and TRQ with a throttle body spacer it is a gimmick that worked on TBI and carbed engines but not on todays modern EFI units, dont get the throttle body spacer it makes a good paperweight and that is it

Nope, you can’t have too much hp or money; it’s just impossible
