T-Body spacer - thinking out loud!!!

I know on a lot of the muscle cars (Mustangs etc.) you can place a Throttle Body spacer in to increase the amount of air. Anybody thought of one for us? Or is it a moot point due to the injectors working at almost 100%, and air not being the problem?

Due to the design of the manifold and location of the throttle body, there is no possibility of installing a spacer. The manifold is a 2 piece design and the throttle body is placed right where they connect.

AFE advertises a TB spacer for the Crossfire. The spacer also creates turbulence. This is suppose to aid in atomization.

I am curious if anyone has tried to fit one yet?
