Upgraded pulley?

Throttle body spacer?

What for?

If Ford does a CAI they will most likely market it as "Off Road Only" since the emissions trap can't be incorporated.

TB spacers really dont do anything on modern cars.

Okay, I'm sure someone will come up with these but as above, TB spacer is just a waste of $$$.

I can't see UDPs freeing up more than about 2-3hp on the '11. It only has 3 accessories, one of which isn't driven all the time. The PS pump was always the major drag on the accessory system, and now that that's electric, the water pump and alternator - the only two left - aren't really that big of a drain.

And yes, if you're purchasing a TB spacer, you might as well put a Tornado in there while you're at it.

Instead of putting the throttle body spacer and tornado in it, send me the money that you would have paid for them and just tell everyone you put them in. You will get the same results and I will have an extra $150 to $200 in my pocket!
