Throttle body spacers are complete wastes of money. Your better off saving your money and buying a handheld tuner. That way you can improve your MPG or add more power depending on what you need at the time. There is nothing that adding a half inch plate of metal in between the plenum and TB that will had MPG or power. The other step for getting more MPG is to change the gear ratio in your truck. That will make your acceleration drop though.
