The cold air intake obviously adds a nice cool air sound, and that throttlebody spacer adds a very nice whistle to go with it. Good combo to have. I have the Holley Intech cold air intake and the AFE silver bullet throttlebody spacer.
And yet the cams lift duration and compression ratios stay the same ...should of crumpled your cash up n tossed it on the ground ..does anyone understand how a internal combustion engine works ...
I’m no car expert man, but I do know a cold air intake adds a good whistle, depending on the quality of the intake of course. And I do know that some throttle bodies have specific design that can cause that whistle. The silver bullet throttlebody spacer has a specific design that’s supposed to help with Air combustion and creates that whistle. But again I’m no expert and don’t know if it helps with airflow so much or not. My buddy has one on his truck and I absolutely loved how good the whistle was so I put one on my car. I had a couple people ask me if it was a turbo. Not very car savvy people, but if a nice whistle adds a good sound that makes people think it’s got some good upgrade that’s a plus for me. And again… I love the sound of the whistle every time I hit the gas.
It is normal yes, the whistling you are hearing is the surge of air flowing over the throttle body blade at a specific angle causing the whistle. The same principle happens when blowing air over an angled reed for musical instruments. That whistle will only happen at certain loads when the throttle blade is at a certain angle, usually low part throttle.
Well… they say it helps airflow to the intake manifold. But it seems most people don’t believe that. One thing it does do for sure… Adds a very nice whistle sound that I absolutely love! And that’s the only reason I really got it.
Throttle body spacers increase the amount of plenum air volume available to the intake. If you were to elongate the intake manifold runners, you would shift the power band for more torque. If you shorten them, you would shift the power band for more horsepower. By adding a spacer you are effectively increasing the manifold volume which shifts the power band for more low-end torque.
@@eevee4408 not necessarily, but everything you bolt on is cumulative. Your stock ECU is made to compensate the A/F plus or minus. So adding a cold air or exhaust usually doesn't tip it over the edge. Adding a spacer, new throttle body, exhaust, cold air, etc. Will eventually necessitate a new tune. Just a spacer alone usually does not require a new tune, however, a tune will make the most power out of it. Especially if your tuner knows the power band you are aiming for.
@@carlosbenitez3619would i get any engine lights w a bbk tb, after market cai and a mid muffler delete? Would it make sense to add a spacer to all of that, or is it not needed
@@ThatSummitWhiteZ71 absolutely man… Every time I hit that throttle and hear that nice sharp whistle I absolutely love it, and doesn’t get old in the slightest. Easily worth the $100.
@@chetgoodenough8749 only makes you look like a giant dumb ass when you try to dictate when someone else wastes their money or not… If I bought this throttlebody spacer thinking it was going to be great performance gains, I could understand you giving me shit. But when I specify I bought it because of the nice sharp whistle it adds that I absolutely love, and you still try to say it was a waste of my money? Again… Makes you like a giant dumb ass. Not saying I’m rich but at the same time, $100 isn’t that much to me and EASILY worth it adding that nice whistle.

Bro got a scat to drive it like a prius
Yeah dude sure… this one little video showing the throttle body spacer whistle is a whole representation of how I drive 🤦🏻♂️
Bruh he's just trying to show you at low rpm so you can actually hear it
The cold air intake is what’s whistling… it whistles due to the manifold opening up. The spacer does nothing performance wise.
Add a tuner like pedal or polsar it will make a difference
I’m actually getting my car Dyno tuned on Thursday this week.
Did you feel any different in power or torque

Nice whistling come from the leaking throttle body spacer
Another “know it all” with his opinion on throttlebody spacers
😂 wth
Not how that works lmao
what do you think about legmaker for a 392 daytona
Don’t hear anything but cars driving by.
The suspension sounds like a dump truck.
Well I guess you would know the sound of a dump truck from all the dumps your mom has taken
@@daviscowboy20LOLLLLLLL
I added a 90mm throttle body from BBK and I have this EXACT same whistle sound coming from the cold air intake. Is this normal?

@@ciscoh1 I ended up taking it off and going with a MMX 87mm ported TB. The fit was excellent and power increase was better.
what intake did you have on in this video ?
AFE silver bullet throttle body spacer, and a Holley Intech Cold Air Intake
Spacer does absolutely nothing, dyno even proved it lol
What does the throttle body space supposed to do?

Are you tune
Yeah man right now on a 93 tune… but next Thursday I’m getting my Custom Tune.
So you wasted your money
On?
$100 something bucks is worth the noise and the 5 hp gain with the throttle response you gain
