Default Throttle body spacer and supercharger ?

Is it worthwhile keeping my throttle body spacer ?

The way I see it is that the supercharger wont give two ***** if the air is spinning .. its just going to compress the hell out of it anyway ! haha

Is it tapped for spray? Otherwise it's just a paper weight.

^^^^ exactly. Toss it unless it is tapped for juice and you plan to use it.

As others have pointed out, not only is it a waste with the supercharger but its also a waste with the stock intake. Ditch it and never use it again unless you put Nitrous nozzles in it.

Anyone ever put meth nozzles in one?
I was thinking about buying one and honing the bore out smooth and trying that.

TB spacer for the win... Works great and you can decide how many ponies you want. I may add a Honda Civic worth soon.

PS if you want to drill yours I have both a wet and dry nozzle I sell for half what it cost new. I even have a extra set of NOS brand Fuel/Nitrous solenoids I can sell, just send me a PM.
