We're not trashing you, just the product. At least that's the way I see it. It just doesn't work on our trucks and has been proven over and over again. Search and you will find threads about the spacers and they will all have posts similar to what you're seeing in this one.
BTW the Airaid TBS was my first mod. That didn't last long because all it did for me was give my truck a whistle. I actually took it off my truck before I joined this site and found out afterward that it was proven they don't work.

you obviously changed your driving habits since the Throttle Body Spacers DO NOTHING on our direct port fuel injected motors..

You got the extra MPG because your pocket is lighter.

You're still not fooling anyone. A piece of metal between the throttle body and intake manifold isn't going to do jack ****. Maybe you can try and sell them to 12 year olds, I'm sure they might believe you.

ditto.

hate to tell you, but even with 317 miles at 1/4 tank, you be lucky to make 375 before your LFL comes on...trust me, that last 1/4 goes a lot faster than you think...
