There are none available that I know of. They don't really give much of a gain either in my opinion

Now kids, play nice.

Have you tried shopping Autobacs online? I know they carry spacers and such.

You may also want to consider turning your caps lock off as well. People don't take kindly to being shouted at over the internets.

what about intake maniforlds? does anyone know AROUND how much hp/tq it would give you? like if you got the Injen intake and then get a performance intake manifold would the intake manifold give you about the same power the intake did (added on to the power of already having the intake)? is there another VQ with a similar intake manifold that we could possibly custom fit to our cars?

I don't think people get just the intake manifold, they usually do it when they are working with some type of induction, I'm not sure thought. However, a ton of the G guys have throttle body spacers, so something must be working for them at least.

I installed a skunk 2 intake manifold on my 97 integra and I sure as hell felt some great gains. Although, I do agree it's more beneficial for use with turbo..etc...

IMO send me the $100+ check that you would have spent on a throttle body spacer and I'll mail you the horsepower increase in an envelope.

So true. TBS are the biggest waste of money in my opinion.

TB Spacers are a waste they add nothing. All they did for a Titan was make noise and thats a 5.6 V8!

You should check out some of the other forums such as the G and Z forum. It seems like there are folks that have had success with this mod. It is one i'm considering.

I was on the Z forum those that said they had success are just rationalizing the money they spent, It did nothing for my Z or Titan

It is a spacer that goes over your intake manifold. Here is an ad for one to give you an idea.

I would look into a plentom spacer first. I made my own using aluminum plate cut on my router. Got a 5hp gain on my na Z and best of all it changed the power band which is good in motors with high compression that have extensive mods done. $20.00 mod if you can make it yourself.
