Having seen and worked with their intake, I would stay far away. But I did find this funny
".....to raise the throttle body one-inch. The additional height combined with the unique OBX spiral flow design creates a vortex airflow that greatly increases power output and fuel mileage."

The spacers work wonders on Carborated cars cause it gives the air and gas more time to mix and mix better. This would do nothing on our cars or any Fuel injected cars.I thought about this same product when I started into my car. My Auto Shop insturctors had to teach me.

Only thing that I know of that is similar is the Phenolic(sp) spacer that VelociaPaula makes, he owns the company that designs and sells them; he is currently in R&D for a new type that will be even more of an improvement.

Not even close, unless I guess you consider they both use the word "spacer"

I wouldnt give those away, that would have no effect on horsepower whatsoever unless you were running a carburated setup such as a 750 double pumper sitting atop a high rise intake on a big block
