First thing you need to do is take off the throttle body spacer and throw it away. Its worthless and will cause more problems then its worth when it starts leaking. May also wanna beat the piss out of whichever clueless idiot told you to get it. Second thing you have to do is get some logs or talk to a CMR dealer. Without knowing what exactly is going on under your hood, we can't give you valid advice.

Dee - Meet Mike, the meanest guy on Diablo's forum! While I will agree that the throttle body spacer is something your better off without I don't think you need to beat anyone.
You asked how to custom tune it, buy a U7135 from Diablo and use the pre-loaded 93 octane CAI tune. You will like what you get with that. Unfortunately this will only lead to you spending more $ to get more mods. I have been running the 93CAI tune for about a year now and it's been great. I am adding a supercharger this summer since my warranty is up. I could have easily bought two new chargers for what I've spent on this one so far! Worth every penny....... Call Diablo, get a U7135 tune!

Just because I have strong opinions, people think I'm mean. But once they meet me, they'll tell you I'm the nicest guy in the world. :D

Naaah, I don't think Mike_Levy is the meanest. He has been around the DS forums for a long time and while I'll agree that his delivery is somewhat blunt, you'll find his knowledge quite useful and he is always willing to give advice. I've been around a while myslef and like Mike, there's no point sugar coating anything. It takes too long. :lol:

No seriously the TB spacer is a waste of $$$. Lots of hissing and whistling and no gains...the guy who sold it to you deserves a fat lip! :evil_angel:
