If you have "advised" ATC of a change in TAS, they recompute your ETA.

ATC does no such thing. You tell a controller that you are going 20
knots slower/faster than you put on your flight plan the controller
could not possibly care less. In one ear and out the other.

Probably the only person who will care if you don't announce it is the DE on
your instrument checkride. And I don't think they will care very much. (I
did it on my checkride because I slowed to Va (not Vb) for turbulence).
