You see ITB's dont have an air filter and are mostly used for racing. This can cause some dust/particles to enter inside the combustion chamber together with the air and may cause "vertical scratches" within the walls of the cylinder liner caused by the friction of the oil/piston rings. Eventually after a long period of time (some say around 5000kms) your cylinders may loose the combustion pressure. However there are many here on the board who have fitted either a steel mesh which doesnt help a lot or individual air filters on the ITB's. In this way this can protect your engine but not 100%. Personally I would prefer to fit ITB's on my S2000 but I would definetely want to protect my engine by adding custom air filters on the ITB's. Of course I know that this may cause a future problem (or not!) but I would love to hear my engine ROAR BIG TIME! Just be warned that your S2000's engine will sound VERY LOUD and you will love it!
My advise on those is to get TODA's ITB!
If TODA gives them of course!

ITB's are streetable you just need to run air filters, and have proper tuning...
As for HP gains, it all depends on tuning and supporting mods...I would venture any where from 15-25 rwhp on a stock motor...But like i said, it depends on the tuning...
I will be getting some 50mm Haywards this winter if all goes well

ITB performance and gains depends as well on tuning as Guedo512 mentioned. You can get the most of your ITB's if you have completed fitting everything just like TODA is suggesting to do.
And to be more specific here is a FAQ section from TODA RACING.

I have the Jenvey ITBs running on the Motec M400 ECU. Running with no form of filters for the past 10,000 miles... 2000 of which are at the F1 track in Malaysia; about 400km from me in Singapore.
Driveability/streetability is excellent, no bogging or hesitation
Air-con runs fine too..
As mentioned previously, they are probably not the best bang-for-buck.. An increase in engine displacement will give you better returns.. But for the sound and throttle response... and okay... the BLING factor.. they are hard to top
Look me up should any of ya be in my part of the world yeah?
Cheers
