throttle body spacer

[jlds91389]

thought about ordering one to go along with my cai. do they really do anything or will i just be wasting my money? also would putting a cai on my car DECREASE the mpg or is it just my right foot and me wanting to hear the exhaust? and one final question will the spacer help mpg?

ya thats what i was thinking lol and would my cai make my mpg go down.. ever since i put it on it seems the car is doing a little worse on fuel?

My mileage increased immediately. 2 to 3 around town and around 4 on the freeway, which is good because I had it tuned for 91 octane. Of course all bets are off when I start playing with the throttle.

The factory system on my '00 GT is a cool air system. Meaning it gets its air from outside of the engine compartment. What system did you install that immediately increased your car 2 to 3 around town and around 4 on the freeway?

I would guess that it was the NEW and CLEAN air filter that did more for him than anything, not the actual piping itself.

Your mpg should stay the same but if you keep testing the new cai then it will obviously go down.

Like the other have stated,do not waste your hard earned money!

thanks for all the replies i found out where my fuel mileage was going... when i removed my fuel filter it looked like old rusty water and little black flakes came out so that was the problem (i hope)

A CAI wont hurt fuel economy. As others have said, those spacers are a load of crap.
