Re: Do throttle body spacers really work?

You have got to be kidding me, do PPL still fall for this junk? Here put these magnets on your fuel line and it will align the fuel molecules, even if the fuel is not magnetic, it is MAGIC. Here put this under your Throttle body it will mix your fuel better..... UMMMMM most fuel injected motors are not throttle body injected anymore... can you say port injected? "If you did not see any added power or fuel mileage then it is doing it's job"? What a load of corp double talk... yes it is doing it's job alright... it is pealing the money out of your wallet and into their pockets. It causes turbulance in the intake system... the exact thing that most racers do right? UMMMM porting and polishing is to SMOOTH the air flow into the chamber to increase power and fuel delivery. OHH it makes Mini tornados in the intake plenum.... and do these little tornados like magic turn in your intake and head down every intake runner to mix with the fuel with out being pulled apart by the valve opening causing a vacuum in the intake runner? The way to increase fuel Atomization is to increase fuel pressure making the fuel squirt out of the injector harder. What to see it for real and test out the idea.... take off the end of your garden hose and turn it on.... there is Zero presure with full flow.. now stick your thumb over it... OH look a nice spray (atomization) but kind of lumpy.... now press your thumb on it harder... Pressure picks up and the spray gets smaller.... how is this mini tornado in the plenum helping mix this fuel in the intake runner? OK Air raid... lets see some On dyno computer controlled lab numbers on just one motor.... any on the web site? Sure in the cold air intake system... but anything on the Spacer? NOPE.....

I am sorry folks, just had to get that off my chest... I hate snake oil.
