I have MPFI though
Which just means less work for you. There are 3-4 bolts/nuts/studs/whatever holding the TB on, put a spacer behind it, and you're good to go. You'll need two TB gaskets though.

Subscribed for results - wanna see if "bigger is better" in this case.. If adding more than 1 spacer really does anything more for it.

This would be an easy/great first mod for wifey to try on her car, since she's into engine work anyway and wants to learn to fabricate stuff.
