i ordered the spacer and gaskets, but haven't gotten them yet (gaskets still being worked on).

from what i've read, this mod is inexpensive and helps in adding some low-end torque, and even some hp. there is one for the TL, and a lot of TL owners have mentioned that they can feel a difference.

The spacer will be a little bigger than your TB, cause you have a 04/05 TSX.

The spacer/gasket itself is NOT expensive, however, the gain will be very minimal. The TL guys get great gains thru Intake Plenum; not TB Spacer/gasket, gains of 3-4hp is really nothing. Without replacing the most restrictive parts I/H/E, I will say the gain will be minimal, to non-noticable.

The 04 Civic TB Spacer MIGHT NOT fit simply due to their design, you will need to verify on it. However, the 06 Civic TB spacer WILL FIT, due to their same bolt pattern. The 06 Civic TB Spacer is only 4mm larger than the stock 04 TSX TB; a simply fix is to maxbore your 04 TB, which increase the airflow as well.
