Throttle body spacer - worthwhile add-on??

looking at a CAI that comes with a MMR TB spacer and wondering if adds much value to the "deal" and or if it really adds any power/performance improvement (for my GT)?

tb spacers get no real gains; they are pretty much an expensive paper weight.

thanks for the feedback on the TB. I kind of figured with the new price tag of $60, they really did not add a ton of value. Now I can use that hopefully in my negotiation for CAI.

Yes TB spacers add power, but only when you drill a hole in it and add a nitrous foger to it. Otherwise, paperweight.
