throttle body spacer
i have seen alot of TB spacers for these trucks and they claim to give you 22hp and25 ft.lbs. of torque i put one on my cousins ram that had a 360 in it but there wasn't much of a difference, but i was wondering if any one has put one on there dakota,also how well do they really work.....(mine is a 3.9) [/align] |
RE: throttle body spacer
they are pretty much worthless. all they really do is give your engine a little whine when hit the throttle. POS

RE: throttle body spacer
Ya sorry the throttle body spacers dont do anything on our trucks. I took mine off and sold it on ebay. Sorry to who ever bought it!

RE: throttle body spacer
its true the TB spacer does nothing but puting the Holly V8 TB on your truck is real easy and it actually does give you some power and a little better mpg. Just make sure that you get one with the same linkages for the kick down cable and throttle, it will save you a lot of hassle. At the junk yard you can get them cheap and its worth the money. Hope that helps a little.

I really don't get why ppl get in too those things so much

RE: throttle body spacer
yep; they dont work to well i have a 92 v6 3.9 Dakota, and it fills no difference on normal driven conditions; unless you get up to 3000 rpm. (then you'll fell a push that you'll notice)

Yeah them spacers are junk, good paperweight, but for performance, JUNK! I heard that besides being a good paperweight, if you strap one to your arse, you can make neat whistling sounds:D, haha |
RE: throttle body spacer
Have dyno tested TB spacers, and they add absolutely NO hp or torque gains. Never tested the claims of mpg increases, but if two out of three claims turn out to be a lie why even bother with testing the third.

RE: throttle body spacer
i have been thinking about buying a cheap one off ebay to make a home-made nitrous plate!!! they are cheaper than a cool air kit.
