Motorvator Throttle Body Spacer ...WTF is this?? http://www.rpmoutlet.com/fbodymotovator.htm
Anybody have any comments? As a semi-old schooler, carb spacers were always good for a few more hp back in the day. Does anybody think this would really be worth 10hp?

Re: Motorvator Throttle Body Spacer ...WTF is this?? Wouldn't this Negativly effect high end horse power? Similar to changing the runner lengths on a intake manifold.

Re: Motorvator Throttle Body Spacer ...WTF is this?? Isn't the point of intake work to smooth out the air flow and any ripples in side walls and what not......... I doubt that would even see more than one Hp on the dyno, if any. Waste of money. Buy a lid

A billet aluminum spacer with a superior design for better atomization of air
A big opening will not do this. I can't people believe this stuff.

Re: Motorvator Throttle Body Spacer ...WTF is this?? Maybe we should all just go out and buy the "tornado". I think its supposed to be worth like 20hp or something. It's incredible the things people will buy if they read or hear that it adds hp or makes it faster. This should fall under the category of "bridges and tunnels for sale....call in thenext 10 mins and we'll throw in the toll booths for free. 1-800-who-cares!

Re: Motorvator Throttle Body Spacer ...WTF is this?? I think this quote from their site says it best. "The end result is hard to believe," Yeah, It's hard to believe I just spent $88.95, wasted 20 minutes to put this on my car, and now the damn thing wistles every time I get on it. That's hard to believe!
I agree, sue em'!

You guys did not read the fine print. It says that if you do not use their 100% pure Snake Oil during the install [and for its regular maintenance] you will not see the benefits of 10 horsepower and improved gas mileage. Do not forget to ask for a big bottle of Snake Oil when you order!
