What does everyone think about putting a throttle body spacer on a 2.5L TJ, Stock....Is it worth it and can you really tell a difference with it?

Throttle body spacers

My spacer gave me a little better throttle response, but everyone seems to have differing views, do a search and see what other think

I would go for a high flow intake when you put your spacer on too. I got the AEM intake with the throttle body spacer and the combo works great.
