    I know there may be some different opinions on a throttle body spacer.

    However I will give it a try and test it out versus just assuming what it can and will do without actually having one or a prius to test it with.

    This is a 12mm spacer and I will be installing it once I get my latest purchase.

    ^ The circled bit, which connects to the air filter box, will move up 12mm; not sure of the ramifications, singificant or not.

    That aside, I googled, and the consensus was if it does anything it's pretty darn subtle.

    I do not have the stock air filter.

    I am using a Blitz warm air intake.

    This sits lower than the stock intake.

    All should be good with the TB spacer.

    Your concern is valid to those who use a stock intake though and thank you for your input. 20240616_101348.jpeg
