I simply will not respond to debates on this mod here... I will post my review - others will post theirs and researchers can take it for what its worth. This is definitely one of those mods that I suggest you try it before you conclude it doesn’t work. I don't keep mods on my car for the sake of having it. In this case it didn’t cost me anything so I have no reason for justification either.
Oh, and for those that will say or think it... no it is not a placebo affect. 94% (low estimate) of everyone that tried it has liked it. No placebo…

Here’s the link to a review I did on the TB Spacer that has been discussed in this thread:

Update Throttle Body Spacer............
When I saw this post a while ago my reaction was "another wasted mod for
our cars that couldn't possibly work!" After talking to Dave O with Nissan
Sport Mag and listening to several other members that had it installed I must
admit that "I was wrong!" Ok I admit after seeing these type of gizmos in
the past I didn't think it was worth while......again I was incorrect in my
judgment! I'm not sure the results will show up on a dyno because you notice
the diffrence from idle to 2500 RPM. You just get a smoother transition and
from the seat of my pants probably more torq, just enought to feel. It was well worth the $ which wasn't much! I BELIEVE! HAHA

I'm going to get a new Z-tube and cut it back a bit so that there are no crimps. I'll also probably get rid of the crinkle rubber tube that connects the z-tube to the MAF and replace it with something smooth... I know smooth tubes were worth over 10hp on my Viper GTS... if I could get 1-2hp or even better throttle response, it would be worth it..
