Happens! Let me know if you notice anything!!

@@SpeedCultureStudios ok I will, its getting here tuesday lol

@@SpeedCultureStudios I just installed it and drove with it, I have an FJ cruiser. I actually really like what it did. It seems to have made low RPMs less laggy, I already have a CAI so I don't think it added a lot of hp. To me, the most attractive talking point is the throttle response, and so far that is what I have noticed.

@@jacksonwalker3278 that makes sense. How is it right now? I wanna know

@@BapFootballHD I really like what it did for my 1 GR. It made the car feel more refined instead of sounding like it's gonna blow up under load. maybe a slight increase in throttle response but nothing crazy. If you want one, do it. You aren't gonna regret it. It's not a 100-dollar miracle, but I'm glad I own one

Now there’s a use for it!

Glad to have you, as always, and I appreciate the kind words!

Thanks! Yeah and honestly, they probably could not positively attributed that 1-2hp to the spacers. Like I said in the video, you can do back to back to back pulls on the dyno with no changes made and see a variation of 1%. He could have done another pull after gaining that 2hp and been down 3hp. Margin of error. I’ve never seen any evidence of true confirmed gains from TB spacers on any platform.

I agree, waste of money for the VQ. Can't relate to a v8. Who knows it could create 10hp 🤷🏽‍♂️

@@Hondacbr600rrish I’ve seen them installed on many mustangs lol. Same results...

There we have it lol. Don't buy them lol.

@@Hondacbr600rrish hemi v8?

Yes yes, the golf ball science is really cool. There is just too many contradictory concepts when it comes to intakes and throttle bodies. Smooth intake tubes to reduce turbulence and increase flow. Yet spacers that create turbulence to increase flow... But their explanation of the turbulence increasing pressure in the combustion chamber, that’s what I would like a deeper explanation about. Nonetheless, however logical the theory is, they don’t seem to work Lol

@@SpeedCultureStudios as a fluid (air In this case) moves inside of an internal flow It approaches something called fully developed where the velocity at the center of the tube is at its maximum and no longer changes with respect to time. However regardless of how this fluid acts inside of the tube It does not affect the pressure gradient in any meaningful way. Fluid will always move from high pressure to low pressure and the only thing that would increase The flow velocity would be if the outside pressure was somehow increased or the inside pressure was somehow decreased neither of which would be affected by the flow of the fluid In this case. The reason why they prefer nice smooth tubes is so The velocity of the fluid becomes fully developed sooner and you have a nice steady flow into the combustion chamber. I'm always happy to answer any questions you have to the best of my abilities. This does get more in-depth But I hope this kind of explains a little bit behind what you've undoubtedly researched.

Been looking for a comment like this all day lmao

I can second this, did it to my old civic and it really gave it some Pep in its step in the low end and really improved throttle response

@@Ryzuuko it's awesome isn't it?! I have the throttle body spacer combined with a true cold air intake that takes in air from the bumper, and i opened up the area where the fog lights are so i get cooler air rushing in. and it's a tremendous difference with both these mods. night and day. especially in "s" mode. i LOVE driving the thing even more.

No resemblance

You prove it

The sales pitch always makes it tempting--I've just never heard any real life, verifiable gains from them.

Thank you for watching!!

Try it and let us know!

​@@SpeedCultureStudiosordered some eBay ones lol well see

@@SpeedCultureStudios after a couple months of driving the car with the spacers, it does seem to have better throttle response. Not sure if it's gained any power but the intake sound is better with these spacers.

Thank you!

I think tb spacers help more when driving with low throttle. When not flooring it. That's usually where I noticed the difference in other cars.n

Or you can buy an eBay one for $60 and appreciate the better throttle response you'll get. The problem with them is that $200 is way too much and there's little to no increase in HP.

They work trust me

@@kellypark007 how?

@@Manny99999 introducing more volume for the plenum and giving you a bit more air to fuel mix.

​@@Manny99999dyno proven. What LHT's video of them dynoing one

I like that definition “scratch the itch mod.” That’s a great way to put it! Doesn’t hurt anything and isn’t too expensive so still allows you to tinker a little. Well put

But are you happy with them?

Good feedback!

Lol that’s a positive perspective. I won’t argue with it 😂

You can feel a difference but you don't know if you're gaining or losing?

They work trust me

@@kellypark007 hey bro do they really work , would you recommend them. I have G37s coupe with with supported mods

Torvarris Evans I bought one in the past for my Ls1 camaro and they worked excellent but for this set up idk to be honest because yesterday I installed my z1 cold air intake and it didn’t really do much I’m starting to think he know what he talking about

@@kellypark007 ok cool bro

I did not get these. I don't know what you're referring to when saying the part I got looks backwards. The purpose of the cuts was read from the description of the part itself. I think it's more of a ploy than a theory.

@@SpeedCultureStudios i was referring to the picture you used in vid. Yea with physics it should work in idea but I feel that different cars and different mods will handle the part differently.

@@Demon_Mx2277 ah yeah the pictures included were just from websites. It’s definitely true that different engines respond different to certain mods!

That’s the first thing I bought for my 3.7 the afe dry filters.

VQ nitrous systems require nitrous nozzles to be 6 - 8” from the throttle bodies-I believe NX even says 10” so throttle body ports for nitrous, in this application anyway, would not be recommended.

@@SpeedCultureStudios wmi isn't recommended that close either.. .while not ideal they do sell spacers with the ports marketed for the reasons named. I would like to add, I have ran WMI about 3 inches from the throttle body plate, it worked fine.i would also put nitrous in the same spot myself.however I don't care about my motor and if I did I wouldn't have twin turbos....I'm not recommending anyone does it. If you do try do so at own risk.

@@bleach_drink_me it’s just what the nitrous system dealers recommend. I’m sure it has something to do with giving the fuel/nitrous mixture enough time to atomize/mix evenly into the tb.

Exactly right!

It can certainly vary from vehicle to vehicle-in the VQ, you won’t notice any additional power gains or changes to the curve. Zero impact

I'll give you even better advice. Don't buy them at all lol.

That's probably priced about right. Wouldn't hurt trying to get a better deal.

@@SpeedCultureStudios he was asking 12, but i still got to inspect and test drive, any advice when looking for mech issues?

@@jrtrippy1795 check the oil check the coolant to make sure neither looks like chocolate milk. shift through all gears under load to make sure there is no slip in the trans. that's pretty much it. no weird noises or smoking obviously. Ask about the gallery gasket and if it's been replaced.

They aren’t hurting anything

I would pass on the spacer.

@@SpeedCultureStudios right on man.thanks for the reply & advice 🙏🏽

It works. I have one. Didn't pay 200 bucks. My definitely works. I have a few mods on my car,as well

@@carlosmoody1615 I paid $65 for mine. Much better throttle response.

@@carlosmoody1615 this definitely works on a panther body car. Throttle response on a 4.6L with performance air filter and muffler delete or muffler and resonator delete is a notable difference. This is just shy of $200 worth of parts from factory. No Cold air intake. They don’t work properly unless tuned so I buy a $20 performance air filter and slap it in the factory air box and it works like a charm. Also I think the spacers work better on V8’s because of the torque difference and the intake manifold size.

There wouldn’t be any difference unless the increased length got your filter closer to cold air

@@SpeedCultureStudios I mean, for example, if the width of the TB spacer is 1 inch wide, by lengthen my ram pipe to 1 inch, is this "concept" works the same way?

@@kcong4958 I suppose it is the same concept but the result is the same-no gains. Many, if not most, TB spacers have a design to “spiral” the air into the engine, so there is technically a difference there-but that still doesn’t help.

No.

Because it’s ugly. No other reason lol. It still fits, I just don’t like it. I’ve talked about it in other videos. I prefer the mechanical look of the engine rather than a plastic cover

Don’t know what you want man. Contents of the video is outlined at 0:17 and then flows following exactly that timeline 😂 What are they, what are they supposed to do, what do they actually do (if anything) and are they worth it… The whole video is on point. If you knew everything or the video wasn’t informative for you in that you missed the point, I’m not sure why you even clicked on it…

Probably has nothing to do with the spacers. Race him again. The z and g are very closely matched. Could come down to fuel quality, freshness of your plugs or coils etc. the spacers aren’t going to win are lose a race!

@@SpeedCultureStudios thank you bro , I will race him again

No because this is not a turbo car

@@SpeedCultureStudios oh damn thought it was

They make more sense to me in theory, but results I have seen from them don’t do it for me either. The dyno sheets I have seen show the same numbers as people with factory TBs. the thing is that the VQ already brings in as much as as it can handle so when you install bigger intakes or ported manifolds, the car can’t really do much with it. Test pipes and catback help and headers kinda sorta help, but the results don’t change much. You will make 335-340 hp with intakes, test pipes and catback. Install big bore TBs, you’ll make 335-340hp. Install ported upper and lower-335-340hp. Install headers...335-345hp.

@@SpeedCultureStudios thanks! thinking of just LS swapping hahaha

@@justenrust7651 sounds like a good kdea

Right on

That’s right

You have dyno numbers showing they work?

@@SpeedCultureStudios it was on a 2000 z28 camaro fully built I felt the difference no lie

Some say yes some say no. Curious to hear your feedback when you get yours installed!!

Not worried about the growl honestly

@@SpeedCultureStudios My point is that it worked. You could even hear a difference. Hence why I brought up the different growls.

@@spacepope87 I understand. If you’re purchasing them for a change in sound, they may work. But the purpose of the part is to increase velocity in air which is supposed to increase horsepower. And I agree with you-that’s bs Thanks for checking in!

@@SpeedCultureStudios You're dismissing that it helps with throttle response. Why?

@@spacepope87 because it doesn’t. Maybe you think you felt a difference, but there is no way to measure it in any real way. Every experience with “gains” or “throttle response” is all anecdotal. TB spacers do nothing. Whether they are $30 or $300 I would tell you they are not worth the money.

Nope. And wouldn’t

Not correct. But yes they are sensative so if you touch the flaps inside, that will likely require you to perform a throttle relearn

how did you recalibrate it? Can you be more specific, thanks!

@@BapFootballHD reset your car computer, then restart and it should relearn/reset air/fuel mixtures.

There has been plenty of testing done to know they’d not work 😂 Snake oil. Pretty common knowledge

They have no impact on power anywhere on the powerband in a vast majority of cases.

@@SpeedCultureStudios i agree you are probably right… but the case for the physics is there.. if you think of the throttle body as a choke point., speeding up air flow through it would improve air flow slightly.

​@@keithbellair9508 The theory behind them is compelling and you can make it make sense, but in a practical sense, they just do not work. There are a lot of things that sound good on paper, but when you test them or put them to use in the real world, they just don't pan out. This is one of them.

Exactly

Watch the video lol. I did not install them. I just showed in my energize bay where they would be located. This was just answering questions that I get about them regularly.

@@SpeedCultureStudios looked Ike the black one behind the TB

@@blacktalonsport1262 No that’s just the mounting point coming off the intake manifold. The plenum.

@@SpeedCultureStudios it's not clear in the video

@@blacktalonsport1262 it’s clear if you are familiar with this engine. I didn’t think about others from outside the platform watching. But The spacers I show are silver. There is nothing silver in the engine bay. But I also never said anything about having them installed on my own car. I apologize if I wasn’t clear.

Definitely

Not for your m35 either lol

Noob? 😂 It’s pretty common knowledge that, in general, these do not do anything. However, as I said in the video, every car is a little different. But you’re right-you’re the expert-because you “noticed” a difference. Maybe it did something for your car, but of course you know that without figures or proof, you just sound like a noob using his butt dyno saying “trust me.”

your the noob believing everything you read. Then Rubbishing products !Have a Wonderful day xox @@SpeedCultureStudios

It’s a talking video…just sayin’ 😂

You noticed a difference? Mine are coming in tomorrow, 08 HR Z. Hopefully it does something lol

Who are you talking to?
