My question really is - Is it worth it, will I really notice any difference?

Hi Rod,
I have the same scope as you and I bought a 1.25" collimator and TuBlug direct from Howie last year (saving quite a bit of coin in the process). It is without a doubt an invaluable piece of kit, especially in fast scopes like ours. You will not be disappointed!
Cheers
