I DONT KNOW HOW TO USE A KEYBOARD BUT I DO KNOW THAT WHEN I HIT THIS ONE BUTTON IT MADE MY LETTER BIGGER.

I don't see how adding a measly 4 cubic inches of volume to the intake manifold would make a measurable difference in power. I also don't see how insulating the TB would make a difference IF you've already insulated the IM with a Hondata IMG. My TB is always cool, unless it's been sitting for a while.

I also suspect that adding the 3/4" spacer might cause problems for the intake, since you will be moving the mating surface 3/4" closer to the radiator. Depending on which intake you have, you may not be able to do that. It might even cause problems with STB clearance (I'm not a fan of STB's).

^ Sooooo....any comments aside from the picture showing that you have it?

gernby, i have a aem v2. clearence isnt a problem. ^^^ the guy about has the same style intake. the 2 gaskets are made out of the same material as the hondata IMG.

its equal to getting a little larger intake manifold. mostly the tb spacer makes more tq beacause of the volume readily avaible. k series guys with a tune are getting good whp out of them. even tuned without one and then some airfuel trimming/adding and are getting another 4-5whp and 6-8lb tq.

The P2R TB gasket works due to the fact that you have coolant running through the TB for the IACV; pre-DBW. As far as the spacer, it may or may not work. You are adding volume to the plenum, which should yield gains in the top-end; in theory. I just don't see how a little bit more volume right behind the TB, would do much of anything.

Guys remember P2R also makes a TB Spacer/Adapter that allows a 2009-2010 Acura TL AWD 80mm DBW TB to bolt up.

Yes this is for an accord but they make one for the DBW S2000

The Hondata IMG will block coolant flow through the TB, but I don't see how the P2R spacer would block coolant. There are no coolant passages through the TB gasket.

too bad that doesnt bolt up to the s2k or at least it didnt look like it would
