Hmm, interesting notion. Is a TB spacer worth the buy to get increased MPG? Comments anyone?

I found a little more power with the Helix spacer and better MPG's.
I added the K&N first and it made a little more power. I got an underdrive pulley and I will add that next. The best power I received for the money was from the ECU upgrade.

I have heard the spacers create a whistleing sound alot like a turbo or supercharger sound. I think if this is ture its is good, if found cheap, for that reason. Is this true that they make this sound?
