throttle body spacer v6 se fyi

[09legend]

hello all i am finally relased to reply into the forum first let me say thanks there is a wealth of info in this forum. i have been surfing these forums for a month now and i noticed it seems nobody is using a throttle body spacer. i ordered one and i felt the difference right away its a helix for the camry 3.5 3.5L 2GRFE part number 97355 its was hard to find but if you call the helix company they will give you a dealer that has one in stock 540 945 0354. it was $95 shipped and i love it definitly more soild low end torque. Does anybody have one with the k&n intake? how loud does it wistle?

Excuse my stupid question, but what does that spacer do exactly? What do you gain?

Increased gas mileage, more HP, more low end torque............BS!!!!!!!!!!

Oh, nice find that they actually make these for the Gen6 Camrys.

But then again, many people have different opinions about whether these work or not:

The K&N Short Ram Intake doesn't exactly have a throttle body spacer, it has a little rubber sleeve that connects the SRI to the throttle body itself. I'm not sure how the Helix will work in conjunction with the K&N SRI.

"On a carbed engine or a TBI engine they work because your giving more time for the air/fuel to atomize. However with fuel injected engines, fuel is added after the TB, so all your doing is putting another inch or two for the air to travel. Which in turn is actually robbing your system."

I'm not so sure it's worth $95, but who knows, you at least probably get a cool sound to go with it.

The helix connects the throttle body to the intake manifold... so no interference with the SRI...

again worth it? probably not... would I get it? most likely yes... hahhaa
