Default Throttle body spacer

Found a throttle body spacer for $59.00 they say is worth 10hp. Is it worth it?

No, useless. There were quite a few people that tried them out when they were first introduced and got absolutely nada out of them. I don't know about other cars, but spinning the air into a Mustang GT manifold is worthless.
