Question Couple questions !

Before I did my cam intake and exhaust. I bought a air raid spacer and jet mas three years ago . Now I got the cam intake and exhaust and thermostat done. And never put on the spacer and mas . I got a tranny tune and of course a e-tune . Question is should I put the spacer and mas on ! Or are they worth shit like I'm thinking ? And by any reason they are worth puting on will I have to get re tuned. Second I'm buying the lsx intake manifold, long tube headers and a throttle body . But I do not know what size to get . 102 mm or the 92 mm? Thanks for the input guys. As I know thes questions have been asked before in the threads . I just wanted to get all the questions out at once .

Throttle Spacer and jet maf would make better paper weights...All of your other mods are sound. I think since you are cammed you can get better gains from the 102mm TB

If you are going with the FAST 102mm lsxr intake manifold and a 102mm throttle body your spacer probly won't work anyway. With mine the throttle body is about a millimeter away from hitting the tensioner pulley. No way a spacer would fit.

I don't know why I bought it neways .. guess I had a brain fart. I don't understand what it does but heat more air and or disrupt to flow ! I mean I don't have a Honda .

If you weren't cammed it would be. Also, If you decide to do heads in the future, you'll be glad you went 102

Yeah havent read about any real gains at 3" and n/a, so 2.5" flows good enough

yes im doing it all at once next month . long tube the lsx and I the throttle body all at once. im only short the throttle body. I do not want to get a tune more then once . I do not like my car on the dyno . I have seen cars blow up and do not want mine too .
