I'm new here so maybe this has already been said. Take off the plastic elbow right before to the throttle body. Look on the inside and you will see a lot of plastic on the bottom that can be removed. Take off as much as you want just don't put a hole in it. Keep everything real clean and install it back on. I felt a difference at the top of first and on. At full throttle of course. You can feel a difference, not much but hey its free what do you expect.

I'll get a pic of the after effect, because i have already done it. Look in side and you will see the restriction. This makes a difference at full throttle because thats when the air is moving the fastest. Just like polishing the intake runners. A smoother surface allows for the air travel faster. I am no expert, but it works.
