Re: throttle body spacer?
Yup, pretty much, a very good intake might add 2-3whp so imagine how much power a small plate would give by improving airflow by 0.0001%.
If you serious about modding your d17 then consider a d16y8 im swap and upgrading the throttle body to something with a larger diameter, that will actually show gains. Unless your doing an intense build though, even that's not worthwhile.
