Lightbulb throttle body spacers

Has any body used them on your explorer? Did they help your fuel mileage and did you get more power in the bottem end? I'm looking at putting one in and I dont wont to spend the money if it's a wast of time. Need in info.

I have yet to hear a story where a throttle body spacer has helped some one. All they do is lighten your wallet up. As for their performance claims, they are usualy done on a heavly modified engine at very high rpms. That is about the only place you will see these things help. And when they do help, it is such a small amount that you will never notice it.
