Im pretty interested in this plenum, it has 1/8npt vacuum port, that can be used turbo boost and nitrous hook ups, and it fits the stock manifold... im just wondering if anyone has some insite on this product?

I'm fairly sure this is just a throttle body spacer.

 

ya i know that, just wondering if anyone has used it, and have seen any gains. i know the a company a few years ago was working on a throttle body spacer but is would throw CELs. So im just curious if anyone has used this one before?

 

throttle body spaces are useless on fuel injected cars.

 

unlike scion, the civic and rsx forum guys claim small power gains on thier posted dynos. scionlifers are to cheap to test anything if it's n/a, and just complain when someone tries to step forward.

 

I actually put that on the manufacturers, if you want me to buy something claiming gains you better back it up. Why should I spend money to advertise for them?

 

all you have to do is google parts, and check what it did for other cars in general. either a part will gain on most or do nothing at all. a small gain is better than no gain. it all adds up.

 

there was a guy that dyno tested a throttle body spacer. maybe not this one but he actually lost hp. they do not help our cars, they only thing that is good about it is maybe the port for nitrous.

 

nope. that is true, i read it a few years ago.

 

I was actually tempted to buy it and test it, but my tuner says that it won't do much lol so just save the money

 

on our cars it does not good for us and makes us loose power i had one on my car at for a lil while i never bother to dyno it but i did feel it sluggish on the bottom end and there where we have our torque so i diched that got rid of it on craigslist for $50 to some local guy its up to you but i wouldnt i would save my money

 

wanna see a true plenum spacer..buy a car with a vq35 motor...they breathe nicely with pleunum, throttle body spacers..


our cars... nothing save your money use the 94 and add it to the nitrous or turbo fund

 

I have the OBX throttle body spacer....There are no NOTICABLE gains...but there are DEFF some sweet sounds that it makes..lol...I like it and it was cheap...just my .02

 

lol id never buy something for 94 dollars just for sweet noises..

 

Correct....I wouldnt either...The claimed 3whp from OBX and its was like $40...chump change

 

Best info on this thread.

 

Bought one off of someone for $10. Made zero difference obviously. It does make this weird swirling sound at high rpms though. Not sure i like it. Sounds weird. Although i hardly felt any difference from the lightweight pulley, long tube header, CAI, or any other little mod i've done either. I think the meaner your car sounds the faster you THINK it goes.
