Throttle Body Spacer Help

So I am looking at getting a TBS but there are three different three different ones to choose from. I was trying to find some info by searching the forums but cant find what I am looking for. The three is question are as follows:

Taylor Cable Helix Power Tower - http://www.taylorvertex.com/Products...ting?id=717141

Power Rev Racing - http://store.excelerateperformance.c.../i-222756.aspx

Outlaw Engineering Thermoblok Kit - http://www.outlawengineering.com/hondajframe.html

Does anyone happen to know the Thickness or Diameter of any of them?

Has anyone ever used the one by Taylor? (Did a search in the forums and have not found anything)

Any Suggestion or information would be greatly appreciated.

I think a TBS is a worthless mod, but I would go with p2r products if I were so inclined. To me atleast a CAI would make some nice noise for your money. The spacer makes very little if any power and doesn't add much to the under hood look.

Drew, I've got a TBS and like it. It adds a small amount of power with a small output of cash.

Obviously, we recommend Acurazine vendors-Excelerate is one of those.

I do not recommend the CAI. It's a lot of money with no power increase. Plus, you run the risk of freezing up your engine if you get water sucked up into it. In my opinion, it's a little bit of growl for ~$350.

Consider getting a J-pipe. The J-pipe/TBS combo will give you some nice gains.
