there was a little chat over here about them. I dont know enough to speak in any kind of certainty about them and their true impact on HP or MPG improvements

94YJBeaver started a thread about it but not a lot of info. LINK
If you Google "do throttle body spacers work?" you will get a lot of info, pro and con.
If you really go through it you will discover one thing. They do work..........
on engines that have carbs or fuel injection at the throttle body.
The JK 3.8's and 3.6's have direct port injection. I couldn't find a single dyno report that showed any positive results when installed on an engine with direct port injection. Lots of personnel "it feels like" and "sounds like" but no actual proven results.

I have an aFe on my 2012 and I really can't tell that it did anything expect it makes a cool noise between 2000 and 3000 RPM's, kind of like a turbo. It didn't cost me anything therefore that is why it is even on there.

Thx I hadn't googled it but I thought as much though thanks.:yup:
If it makes a cool noise they should sell them that way I might even pay more for that kind of result.. LOL:cheesy::cheesy:
