I'm checking eBay for Throttle Body Spacers and found http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=7908946602
The price is good, but I'm skeptical. I was looking at one by AirAid and theirs is $90 compared to under $35 for the one on eBay. Does anyone have any idea if I'd be wasting my money by purchasing the one on eBay (apparently "L&B RACING")?
Thanks!

Throttle Body Spacers on a fuel injected engine are a waste of money. Do a search for spacers on this board.

I see that KRC Performance recommends a throttle body upgrade. I take it the TBS is too different than the TB upgrade to be worthwhile? Big price difference, so I was hoping it'd work.

what krc performance means by a tb upgrade is using a tb with larger, ported/polished bores for added cfms of airflow. a tb spacer is going to do nothing except make it sit a few inches higher and make a whistling sound. once the air passes through the tb and into the intake manifold, it doesnt matter whether or not the tb has the extra space under it. save your money and get a ported/polished tb
