How many people would be interested in a free flow TBI kit?

Me and Tim would work on this. What I'm going to be doing is making TB spacers and injectors spacers, then Tim is going to get the stock TBs and have them worked over at a local machine shop. I might be able to do it all myself but I'm not sure yet. Basically it's going to be a Turbocity TB and spacers for like $150 plus core TB unit deposit of like $50. I know I can make the spacers but I'm wondering how many people would be interested so I can see how many units we're going to need to prep. The spacers would be your choice of height between 1/4 and 3/4". Obvious clearance issues with the larger spacers. The spacers would be made from plastic NOT metal for the obvious reason of heat isolation. Maybe a sandwhich design of thin aluminum for durability but we'll see how this idea plays out.

Sounds good but I don't think many people are interested. I might just do the spacers if nobody is interested.
