Default Thottle body spacer.
Does anyone recommend this or running one? If so what brand name and differences noticed? Hp? Torque?

These are junk. They do not work at all. They actualy rob horse power by causing more turbulent air.

When I bought my '08, it came with an AirRaid TBS on it. I don't believe it does much of anything either. As suggested, I'd put your money into other mods.

Don't think I made a very good sales pitch though?

Okay, I admit I have the Jet throttle spacer. I installed it at the same time as other mods. I think it added 100 hp give or take a few.

Do a Title-only search on Viper. There was a long thread on this which may give some decent feedback.

Honestly, in every Jeep I have had, and that is 9, only one I didn't intstall one and that was my 88 YJ and i installed a Weber carb. Most, and I mean most say they are a waste. I seem to like um, which is 1 out of 1000.

The thread on the Viper is interesting. Jpop and Planman and some heavy hitters are in that thread. Good stuff!
