Tap your intake instead. It's easier, cheaper, and won't suction past the check valve.

Just so you know, zzp has a TERRIBLE reputation. OTTPERFORMANCE.COM has a good reputation. Why do you not want to do it in the cai? I have mine tapped in the cai and it works great. It gives the meth/water time to be absorbed before hitting the motor.

The 'terrible reputation' is a rumor spread by a couple guys with specific vendedas against ZZP. you have one or two rumors passed on from member to member and then with enough people talking something can appear to be the truthI can assure you that our TB spacer fits perfectly. It's a CNC'd piece of aluminum and I don't think any company's aluminum is better than anothers, LOL. We have 2 ports on ours for installation ease.

You can come on and let us know that there was a price drop......

You can come on and defend your companies reputation......

But you cant asnwer a question as to whether or not a friggin throttle body spacer plate comes with gaskets????????

In in LA, I have a computer and time. I'm enjoying being out of MI. I adjusted the price myself to be more competitive and can adjust anything on the site from here. I usually write tech articles while on vacation. However, I cannot go into shipping, find a part and inspect the package contents, nor can I call in when we're closed.

Being that we carry about 1000 products, I cannot recall from memory what each one is supplied with in the install kit. Maybe I should hire rainman to help me out?

You may carry about 1000 products(most not ZZP branded), but you only offer ONE throttle body spacer, I find it difficult to understand (and shocking) that you would not be able to answer a simple, very important question regarding what is actually included with any given ZZP branded product...... The fact that you would need to physically inspect the packaging of your product leads one to believe that you have little involvment with development of your own product. And of course your cavalier disposition and sardonic comments dont do anything to improve your reputation that you fight so hard to keep positive.
