Makes absolutely no difference when I had one, but the sound combined with the intake was nice.

Only way to know is dyno tuning your car, at churchs i ask Shawn if it would make a difference with the throttle body spacer, he told me that they tuned 10 cars and the cars with straight threw intake manifolds had no gains but intake manifold that curved right after the throttle body they got up to 5-10 hp, bbq bobs camry gained around 45whq and 25whp from 1psi of boost, 150ml of w/m and throttle body spacer you do the math.
