Torque Spacer?

I was looking at a catalog and i saw Torque Spacers for sale. This spacer goes in between the cylinder and reeds. It is supposed to shift the torque curve to favor the low- to mid-range band of the rev range. I was wondering if anyone had installed one of these on their own bike and noticed more low to mid range torque. Thanks for any info.

VForce or Boyesen reeds normally cure the ills of stock reeds so you probably would be better off with an aftermarket reed valve kit than the spacer. I haven't heard much on it or whether there is any real benefit.
