no intake spacers for us are unneccessary, (4.6 motors) they dont do anything but sound a little cooler (hardly any hp gain for the money, its just not worth it IMO

I ran a spacer under my ported stock plenum. I could tell a little difference, and I seen about 4-5HP on the dyno from the combo.

I had a steeda spacer under my plenum, I liked it. Mustang tuning sells one for $40 and it does the same thing the steeda one does for half the price. My car felt a little better in the mid range with it.

Agreed, it won't be much. But if the price is good and you really want it then it shouldn't hurt.
