TB spacers aren't good for increasing air flow they are good for:
a. Fitment issues (larger TB)
b. Tapped for nitrous/meth
No one wants to drill into their intake or couplers to mount nitrous or meth...that's just bad news.
The problem you are experiencing could be because the t/b isn't mated properly to your inlet, did it ship with a built in gasket? Did you tighten it completely with the new bolts? I suggest using gasket sealer on the spacer to t/b side. There really shouldn't be idling problems unless there's a leak somewhere...because it's just a SPACER.
