Default 06 Z71

Hey to all, new to the forum here. Sorry for the long winded post
ive got a 06 silverado Z-71 with the flex fuel 5.3 Factory 3.42gears, factory electric fans. mods are KN 63 series charger, flowmasters, Hypertech Max Energy (87 octane). I have just a couple of questions:

1. Throttle body spacer, which one do you guys like the best and is it noisey?
2. Has anyone installed asp racing underdrive pulleys for the crank and the overdrive alternator pulley? do you like them?
3. what kind of gas mileage are you guys getting in city?

thanks to all. have a good one

Hunt - you have got to quit stalking all those college girls, although I don't blame you, but your wife will get pissed when she finds out.
