Throttle Body Spacers & Overboring???

the spacer does sound cool. And i think i may have felt slight gains.

the diameter from the spacer is smaller by a couple mm than the overbored tb so the makers told me the spacer would actually then be a restriction on the overbored tb.

so now i just have the overbored TB by itself

How would you judge having the Overbored TB over stock (no spacer?)

Not to semi-gravedig an older post, but I do have a theory.

Would it be possible to have the Helix throttle body spacer port-matched to the OB TB by ProFlow or whoever? Since you are sending them your TB core, why not ship them your spacer and gaskets to have them matched in inner diameter? Just an inquiry/idea, but since I don't own the spacer myself, I don't know if there are restrictions, design aspects on it that would prevent something like this from being done.

I know someone sent one over at some point but I don't know what came of it.
