Default Throttle body spacer

I have been wondering if a throttle body spacer will really make that much difference on my 96 3.9 L. I already have some stuff done to it like the chip. exaust and k&n.

Besides being a great paperweight, a throttle body spacer will be useless on your motor. (In fact, several tests have shown them to LOSE power on modern vehicles)
