    Does anyone know of a company that makes a throttle body spacer for a 2007 2.7l 4 cylinder. A brand, how much, and where I can buy it?

    Neither of those will do anything. It's a 4 cylinder. Either the LCE Header or URD supercharger kit are your best luck for any noticeable difference..... This is coming from a fellow 2tr lover. :)

    Have you seen the dyno test tooter has run. The intake manifold spacer lowers the torque curve more torque is achieved at a lower rpm

    Yea the CAI and intake manifold spacer both had minimal gains alone, BUT, when paired with the LCE header it really seemed to harmonize well and gave a decent boost in power, plus lowered the torque curve

    If you plan on getting both or all three then you will see a noticeable difference in power. Other than that LCE header alone or forced induction

    Built for maximum low end torque, tooter II.VII intake manifold spacer, LCE long tube header, Injen long tube intake, 2,900 rpm torque peak.
    The LCE header offers the most torque improvement for your money.

    On the dyno, the $475 LCE header alone lowers the torque peak by 650 rpms.

    The $255 tooter intake manifold spacer alone lowers the torque peak by 250 rpms.

    And in the latest dyno head to head muffler shootout, a $105 Flowmaster 50 Series Delta Flow muffler alone lowers the torque peak by 100 rpms.

    These two comparative runs are with the LCE header alone with stock exhaust, and header with tooter intake manifold spacer with stock exhaust.

    BLUE: header
    RED: header+spacer

    And these are the results of running three mufflers:

    RED: stock chambered muffler
    BLUE: Magnaflow straight through muffler
    GREEN: Flowmaster chambered muffler

    Each of these low end torque mods separately offer only slight improvements, but together they make a difference you can definitely feel. :)
