It is a simple waste of money. No benefit other than weight reduction in your wallet. If you think about what they even do, it makes no sense. The only place it could potentially have a benefit is a carburated car, even then, the spacer would have to be huge, like not fitting under your hood kinda huge. Those claims are that it helps atomization. But since your fuel is injected elsewhere and not the throttle body, there is zero gain to be had.

+1. On a wet intake, yes. Dry, no. Smooth straight air is what you want with a dry intake.
