Thermal Spacers

Are there any other companies that make thermal spacers for the 4G69 motor besides RPW? I was reading a thread on Club 4G of outlaw engineering making a kit but it seems that never came to fruition.

Also do we share the same throttle body with the Eclipse GS?

Not sure about any other spacers, but the gs throttle body is the same.

Yeah gs tb is the same I swapped mine for the gt tb it's a bolt on / with the coolant line bypass... As for the spacers there's a guy that made them for the IM to head but not for the tb. Only 40 bucks shipped if I remember right , that's where I got mine. He's in the lancer private forsale section, search it up I'm pretty sure he still has a few left.

I bumped it up for you.

It'd be an easy swap for the winter 2 minutes to bypass it and 2 minutes to put it back, just need a 5/16 barb fitting and 2 hose clamps if you want to use the oem ones you just need the barb. Super easy I wish I would've known about it from day one.

Option B would be to get a thermal throttle body spacer. With my luck multiple finicking with that expensive throttle body means I will break it.

Lanzer seems to have no isses with the thermal spacer Black Rally has been selling. PR>RPW when it comes to shipping and price. I highly doubt RPW's thermal spacers are better than Hondata's yet twice the price....I smell tom-foolery
