a throttle body spacer on a MPFI car will have little to null gains, because it defeats the purpose of having MPFI. what a throttle body spacer does is allow more space for the fuel to atomize, and since our cars inject fuel just before the valves, there is no fuel to atomize after the TB.

It won't fit with most intakes either.
