Hey, is there anybody out there that is the Helix power tower? Dead Link Removed
There is a webpage that is it on it. I was just wondering if anybody had it, and was wondering if it would be a good investment. Thanks guys!!

I'd use that $100 for 1/2 of a new throttle body instead of the spacer. Spacers only work well with carbs, not TB's.
 






Who makes a good throttle body for a 4dr 2wd 96? Thanks again!
 






BBK.
 






Check truckperformance.com for BBK TB's, they should run about $200
 






Awesome. Thanks a lot guys, by the way, how would a Throttle body like that effect my gas mileage?
 






Like most performance parts, as long as you take it easy, your gas mileage should stay relatively the same, but when you stomp it, the bigger throttle body will allow more air in and the computer will add more fuel.
 






I actually gained 1-2 mpg with my throttle body. I still drove the truck the same, it just had better throttle response and highway passing power. Like they said, like all mods, it'll help or stay the same; until you start using the new power ;)
