Default Can Both The BBK Throttle Body & Steeda Throttle Body Spacer Put On?

The BBK Throttle Body:

The Steeda Throttle Body Spacer:

Will they "match" up to each other, or would one cause problems for the other?

it says that the spacer fits with stock throttle body but i dont see why it wont work, worst that can happen is you get a refund from AM.

Well a spacer is worthless anyhow on an EFI vehicle so don't even bother with it. Also the holes are going to more then likely be the same size as a stock TB so its going to create a restriction if anything.

Should match up fine. But I wouldn't recommend either.

Get the GT500 TB and forget the spacer. It does nothing but make you spend money. Kind of like buying an O/R X for power. Waste.

The gt500 TB or the new Whipple Single-Blade TB, those are the only ones worth getting. And neither will show that great of gains until you get a CAI and a new Intake Manifold....

The more you know........

Do you mean on the BBK TB or the Steeda Spacer?

The spacer will be the same size as a stock TB so it will be smaller then the BBK TB.

I personally wouldn't spend money on either one.
