    I haven't seen any convincing evidence that TB spacers do anything on Tundras. If you find a conclusive test please share it.

    As far as the intake runner kit increased runner length and plenum volume can improve performance much like headers. I haven't seen one tested on Tundra but I've seen one used on other platforms to make some HP gains.

    @Mdl, weren't you the one keeping the closest eye on this?

    An article I saved from awhile back concerning TB spacers. Interestingly I have a spacer of sorts. I have stacked adapter plates for the 95mm TB, about an inch total. I have not noticed ant seat of pants difference but I'm running the SC and non boost drivabilty seems the same.

    The AES plenum runner should give some increased low rpm torque. Plus being able to add nos or water/meth injection for each cylinder. They seemvto work on other platforms so I don't see why we wouldn't gain some torque too.

    Great article. I doubt a TB spacer will do much for a supercharged Tundra for the similar reasons stated in the article. Any swirly air generated by the TB spacer is being manipulated by the rotors/screws of the blower before it gets in the engine.

    On one of the Harrop videos they use it to squeeze out some extra HP.
