Cons= expensive and does absolutely nothing but a slight weight reduction to your wallet.
Pros= I lied, there are no pros, this is pure snake oil.

I posted a poll regarding these about a month back, the overwhelming consensus was staggering.

Well there is one pro for the seller...they make some good money for a paper weight.

Throttle body spacers are hocus pocus. Save your money and apply it elsewhere.

Just installed my Airaid Throttle Body Spacer. Like Fox Mulder ,"I want to believe". Only driven 10 miles so far, what I notice is smother idle and throttle response at low speed. A neat sounding turbo like whistle at certain throttle positions. Seems a little peppier, maybe,sorta. Hard to tell, with a L99 and 3.91 axle it goes like crazy anyway. Got it from PhastekPerformance.com for $111.90
