So how's the spacer?


Installed the throttle body spacer after taking the truck for a ride post-scoop install. Another super easy install. One thing: anyone that has had a spacer on a 5.7 Ram hear the whistle sound like you normally get from spacers? I'm not hearing it at all. Not accelerating to 25 MPH and not to 70 MPH either. Seems odd. And so now I'm worried that I've done something wrong during install. If you've had a spacer on a 5.7 Ram please let me know if you hear or heard the whistle most people come to expect from spacers.

Ya sorry. I'm just really in need of some input on this because I do not want to screw up my truck.

I'm going to wait til I put a couple hundred miles on the truck before I analyze gains or lack thereof.

Different intake setups could produce a different noise. Im not sure you could really install that wrong...
