Default spoon junk

Does that Spoon Ventuli Plate work, or even worth the money? Seems like all the Dohc Side guys have it on there cars, anyone have experience with this?

The general consensus is that the plate was designed for, and funtions best on, the B16. Using it on a B18C can actually result in power losses.

I belive it is a plate that replaces the intake manifold gasket. It somehow makes the intake runners a little smaller at that point, increasing the intake air velocity.

I know the design is theoretically suppose to work. And I know you should gain midrange ......but I think you will loose a bit on the high end. Anyone else with more experience want to shed light on the matter??
