I have an 07 supercab 5.4 with 35" tires 18" rims, gotts mod, drop in k&n filter, flowmaster true duals, edge evolution. I am getting between 16-17 mpg. I was wondering what else I could do to my truck to help gas mileage. I had a banks cai n it made it worse but gave me a lot of power. So I sold it and did the gotts mod. Helped a lil bit..will throttle body spacer help? One on ebay says 100% guarantee that it will help performance and gas mileage. But its a cheaper one..so not sure. And I heard they are only good for older vehicles.

At 16-17 MPG you're doing about as well as you're going to do. The TB spacer is an expensive paper weight.
