Q. Throttle Body Spacer for 2005 Accord 4 cyl.

Oct 24, 2006 1 Replies

I'm wondering if anyone here has any experience with adding a throtle body spacer kit on their 4 cylinder Vtec?



If you did, would you say that it added the claimed 3 or 4 mpg AND the few extra horsepower?



Was/is there an issue with throttle cable lengths to consider during installation?

Don't you think if there were mpg/horsepower to gain that Honda would have installed it already?

Spacers can make sense in multi-barrel carburetors, where you can gain 1% or so more bhp. In single-barrel EFI throttle bodies (such as yours) thay are mere snake oil.

Don't waste your cash.
