Question about Throttle Body Spacers

[BigRalph]

Hi everyone.

I have a 2001 v6 Camaro with K&N fuel injection performance kit. I'll like to know is it worth buying an throttle body spacer?

Re: Question about Throttle Body Spacers

if you have every other bolt on and its the only one you don't have then yea buy it. Otherwise as far as gains and are they worth it or not. There is a lot of mixed feelings about them and from the gains that have been seen, they were minimal and you really are just getting lower temp tb.

So if it is like the only thing you are missing for a full bolt on car, then yea I guess you could throw it on. However the money could be better used elsewhere.

Check out the search function here and you can read up on all the mixed opinions on them and decide for yourself if you want one or not.

Re: Question about Throttle Body Spacers

a tb spacer will not only keep the air being put into the engine a few degrees cooler but it will also put more space between the tb and the intake manifold

what does this mean?

it means that a tb spacer will make you lose some bottom end power but gain some top end power, so after a few runs at the track you can decide what is best for you.

my advice is to get a tb coolant bypass, you can get em from www.zzperformance.com or look on graymans site to do it for free.
