Ok, looks like we have a verdict on the TB spacer, and other components. Thanks to 996r916sps on mustangforums.com. He also dyno'd each mod he got at Lideo's, so this should answer Tstangs questions. I looked him up here at TMS and can't find him. So please send your thanks to him over at mustangforums. I just thought this was too good to not post up over here.

Here is his write up:

<span style="color:#333399">Long time readers may have seen the posts I have listed in the past, which I hope helped everyone.

The dyno showed no difference with a MMR throttle body spacer! The dyno showed no difference with Royal Purple synthetic oil in the engine and transmission!

I have been working with an exhaust company to get a muffler assembly, that produces a nice sound and produces real power gains. "Screaming Yellow" has found a really nice muffler assembly, which you can see on his website. Power is usually at the cost of loud exhaust tones. I think the prototype muffler we tested, meets all of the criteria. It produces a at the limit sound, but not too much. I will be posting a sound clip soon, and when the exhaust shop is ready to sell them I will also list their name.

Anyway, here's the numbers and mods:

Stock: 183.9rwhp/215.4rwtq

SCT/Alternative Auto Tune: 186.8rwhp/217.7rwtq

C&L Cold Air Intake: 194.3rwhp/223.0rwtq

Prototype Muffler: 200.9rwhp/224.6rwtq

The cost of all these parts to you is about $850. It cost me over $1100 to acheive these results.

Look at the very few mods my vehicle has, it's not unproduceable, just simple well applied quality parts and service from Alternative Auto. I look forward to installing a underdrive pulley, shorty headers and lightweight driveline items to push these numbers higher. I think about 220rwhp will be the limit, without any power adders or internal engine work. Over the next few months, I will be installing these items and having them tested on the dyno. Give Alternative Auto a call, and ask for Lidio. Tell him Andre sent you, and you want 200rwhp like the silver V6 he tuned this past weekend.

I hope this helps everyone, don't be fooled by the claims made by other people on the net. Look at real world results, like "Screaming Yellow" and myself, who do not profit from providing you this information. I hope everyone follows my journey to 220rwhp!

Thanks!</span>

Ah yes the throttle body spacer yields no improvement....... no surprise there. It's great that we have such a community of folks that will step up and actually field test these parts for the rest of us. I for one am greatful.... [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/thumb.gif[/img]

I hope the throttle body coming out atleast shows some descent gains with a CAI.

You need the carbon fiber ones, they are lighter. Thats why we get spanked by imports all the time. [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/lol.gif[/img]

Dude I PM'd him, he said that he DID get gains, he just hadn't put the decal on his quarterpanel yet. Once the decal was on his quarterpanel it boosted HP by 15 and torque by 102394823005875234
