I have $250 in my hand, and a stock 98 TJ...

[tanthony11]

where would I be best served to spend my money....thinking possible throttle body spacer ($69.95) and maybe hi flow intake ($150) ..just starting out with this although it is my 2nd jeep. very stock 2.5L...

any suggestions will be appreciated.[addsig]

	Throttle body spacer A throttle body spacer is designed to improve the quality of the airflow, allowing air that is more condensed and, thus, more oxygen laden, to enter the combustion chamber. The result of this is a more efficient burn, which serves to release more energy from the fuel, making more horsepower available.

i'd def. go with the new air-intake system. i bought one for my xj and love it. be careful about combining it with a tb spacer though because of hood clearance. the whole air intake unit ended up sittin too high off my throttle body with both a tb spacer and air intake... so i had to ditch the tb spacer. just something to keep in mind:) [addsig]

I agree...I went with a K&N style cone intake on my jeep and it made a world of difference. Although you can make one wayyy cheaper than $150...try like $15. Then use some of the rest on a 4.0 throttle body and maybe some tow hooks hehe.[addsig]

Go with the throttle body spacer and the air intake, I have both on my TJ and it does get you a little bit more power. I have the airaid system, it looks good and it wad easy to install. [addsig]
