1st gen is a throttle body spacer worth it?

I've already installed a k and n intake., I was wondering will the throttle body spacer increase performance? I just recently put in a brand new 2.7 L 4 cyl. So the engine is new.

 

How come?

 

it does nothing but add a little whistle noise when u throttle.

 

Oh I see, what else could I do to increase performance?

 

no #2

 

3.4l

 

i think alot of dudes will throw turbos on those little 4 bangers, maybe check out like a more racing truck scene. there isnt a bunch of dudes doing engine mods round here

 

How much would that cost me

 

Damn

 

The k and n intake does nothing for you either

 

The only benefit is lightening your wallet

 

Here is a wright up on testing a throttle body spacer. They were very negative about it, but in the end got about 2% more power out of the throttle body spacer. Pretty good! http://www.tundraheadquarters.com/blog/volant-throttle-body-spacer-review/

 

Some things are being left out. 1st the test is from a 5.7 Tundra, which will have different results than a 2.7. Second, look at the RPM range from the test. Your not always going to be driving around 4,000 rpm or above all day long. Also, look at the "however" section after the testing. I bet a chunk of the gains were from the lower engine temps.
