Question Throttle body spacer

Has anyone tried a throttle body spacer on a SD with the 6.2? If so, did it help any?

Most of that stuff helps separate you from your money. I put an intake spacer on a 5.0 FI engine once to clear some fancy valve covers. It made big claims about all the extra power I would have. I couldn't tell any difference.

I figured that. I had one on my old 5.4 and made 0 difference, but just thought i would ask and check to see if maybe the 6.2 would be different.

i think the best bet for power on these engines is a tuner and exhaust

i did a throttle body spacer with an airaid cold air intake for my 6.2 SD..installed em both at the same time and noticed a difference but then you just get used to it so in the long run dosent really matter.. throttle seemed more responsive tho with a little more torque

Hey Zecca93,

What kind of throttle body spacer did you use with your Airaid CAI?
