Throttle body spacer?

Sorry if this has been talked about before, but does anyone make a TB spacer for the fit? If not, why do you think that is? Thanks!

Because they work best on carbureted vehicles

Because the bigger the plenum is the smaller the TB should be

Because the plenum size on a Honda is hardly ever less than optimal for a stock head, except the DPFI manifolds

Because there's hardly any room to get a 90 degree pipe next to the battery as is

I think that about covers it.

yeah thats what i was thinking, about the space and the battery. But they just may require a battery relocator like the pwjdm intake. Apparently alot of SI owners have TB spacers and get good gains from it.
