Waste of time. Think about it. The intake plenum is already plastic. What the heck is a worthless spacer going to do?

Throttle body spacers do absolutely nothing on a fuel injected motor.

Your best bet is an intake and/or a performance chip

If you get a snake oil sticker with it you'll get another 10hp too!
