Throttle Spacer

Have any of you had any success with a throttle spacer? Some companies advertise that theres has a way to spin the air flow into the engine.

Never heard anything "good" about them. Usually when spacers are added all the resulting increased performance is at higher RPM's that aren't used much.

Spacers aren't meant only for horsepower, they are also meant to help in fuel economy. They are a bolt-on for the top end, and aid the fuel/air mix. I'm not talking about the "cheap" vortex spacers you see on television or on ebay, you want to get one like the Poweraid. I purchased mine for $30 from someone selling theirs on eBay.
