Hey guys i finally recieved my throttle body spacer and i was wondering if anyone had a quick DIY from when you guys installed yours. something brief would help. thanks in advance!!

 

Pretty straight forward really.... my hardest part was I had to bend the bracket on my K&N sri to get it to fit....

I used 2 nuts to get the studs out instead of vice grips.... works a lot better and you don't scratch up the old stud.

 

hey thanks man. this is really going to help. i just thought we would need a longer radiator hose or something since my CAI seems to already be touching the radiator hose but i'll try it out today after work thanks again

I'm not really sure if you do or not with the CAI, I have a SRI.....

looks like napa part# 7777 is what you might need for the radiator hose.

also if you can't find that hose, here is another one... not sure who carries these though, might be autozone Gates belt # 21065,

 

It works fine with a CAI...... I just put mine on today with injen CAI. Did you notice a different sound at 20 to 15 percent throttle?

 

any one make it work with a short ram intake? my intake is already against the little harness clip thing.

i put on the spacer and i did feel throttle response improve. I'm really looking into a pulley set next
