It says 6 rwhp with intake and exhaust mods, meaning intake + exhaust + TB = 6 rwhp

spoon makes this t-body b/c they aren't allowed to change the diameter of the butterfly in the circuit racing class they run in. STR makes a T-body that is worth buying. 70mm

I believe the Spoon TB helps more in the throttle response department then HP wise.

On my Integra I had a Spoon TB which is just a revised Stock Type R TB which tapered fro 70mm to 64mm(stock diameter). I didn't feel shit Hp wise but throttle response improved a LOT. The car revved a lot faster than before. I know an Integra and s2000 are totally different but i assuming Spoon is using the same principle for both TB's.

My opinion: save your money, if you can get a bigger TB elsewhere thats cheaper, do so.

I got one, it's not all that great. I feel that i gain something at top end and lil bit at vtec transition, but not so much that i can really notice it. This is when i had intake and header. I felt better gains having tstat,fswitch,rad cap, and hondata insulator 2-3 months after it was installed. If i could do it all over again, i would just go with the kings one and save some money for the amount of "gains" i got.
