CARB app. I really do not think there are any on the market as of yet. TB spacer, it is my understanding that the spacer for the 4.7 same year will fit our trucks. i could be wrong never personally tried.

Throttle body spacers? What a wonderful way to throw away money. You might as well get yourself an electri supercharger while you are at it. It only cost a little bit more than the spacer and promises much more horespower.

Not only is this a waste of your money and time installing, but I think it's safe to say you'll never see one that is CARB approved. Certification costs are pretty high for some item that sells for $40.

The reason they do not work on the mag engines is
the beer barrel design of the manifold
The 3.7 and 4.7 have a front induction type intake
and the spacers swirling effect does work on these
intakes will help perf and gas mileage
Go to summitracing.com and you will find them and
yes they are carb approved and 50 state leagle
they just don't work on the mag engines kegger
design intake
They also work well on old carbed engines to help
atomize the air fuel mixture which is not present
on the mag motors they have only air going through
the throttle body the fuel is injected right by
the intake port on the head

Thanks rhino and J and J. I wont worry about the TB, but still would like to change my stock intake with something I don't have to take off inorder to pass smog.
Oh and another mark next time read closely I was looking for a CARB approved intake not TB.

rhino is it made for the dakota 3.7? And where did you get it? Did it just bolt right up or were some adjustments required? I've been looking for one, but all the retailers say there is no applications for the 3.7. I hope I'm mistaken.

You can swirl the air all you want and in any direction you want, it's not going to do any good on a magnum engine or 3.7/4.7.

calikota, Disregard those who do not read previous posts. Anyways www.360airintakez.com You are going to have to call them and ask them for the kit because it is not on there web site. The only thing that worries me is CA has stricter smog rules then NV.
Also to give you a heads up the Jet chip for the Ram 3.7 fits in your truck, along with Gibson makes a cat back exhaust for it. Also I saw an under drive pulley kit for them as well. But changing the pulleys is a sure fire way to void most warranties.
There are some after markets out there you just really have to look. KRCperformance.com was going to work on a supercharger for it but I have yet to see it. But if it is Mopar they know about it. Only thing is they are out of FL.
Good Luck I check hear often so if you need some ideas just ask. I am no expert buy any means but typically I can help.

I guess you have to choose what you want to believe.

Calikota next time use better grammar and I won't misinterpret what you are asking ok? You said "or" you could have been referring to either part.
