Throttle Body Spacer??

Is anyone aware of a throttle body spacer made for the 1.5 Yaris? I checked-out an OBX made for another toyota 1.5, but the shape was wrong, and the size. Only 3 bolt holes.

It has 3 bolt holes because it's made for non-electronic Throttle (echo Scion Xa Xb).

You could, but you would need to port match the mani for best results.
The spacer being manufactured by AlexNet0 will be plug-and-play for the 1NZ mani and 1ZZ TB.

i made a spacer for my car and ran into fuel problems. the spacer was 1/8" and it kept throwing a lean code. i solved it by getting 1zz injectors. just a heads up

Someone please explain what the spacers do? And why it causes the A/F ratio to be different.

I see the thread with people interested - does he have enough people to confirm he's producing it?

I also thought that the purpose of his project was to make a spacer thick enough to support a NOS nozzle.

I think there's enough interest, but I heard they had a setback due to the CNC machine that they purchased.

I hope they can do this soon enough, because I'm getting ready to install the NOS kit that you sold me. I still need to know which pieces I'm missing though...
