Big Bore throttle body for MPG?

Hello -

I just saw this on e-bay :

eBay Motors: Saturn S-Series BIG BORE Throttle Body SC, SL, SW 91-02 (item 300256144389 end time Sep-11-08 18:42:01 PDT)

Quote:
These throttle bodies are professionally lathe bored to ensure a precise and consistent bore
Not a quick and sloppy dremel job
Each throttle body is taper bored from the throttle plate out to 52mm on the front and back
Gain up to 12hp and Save Gas too!
Do you think this will help for MPG? My semi-edumacated guess says no.
