Default Is the spoon ventulli plate worth the $?

I was just wondering if anyone has had experience with the spoon ventulli plate. Spoon says 7-8 midrange hp, but I haven't heard to much about it. If anyone has any info, let me know. Thanks.

Best is on the B16A. They work very well...good feel for midrange power. Not as much of a differnce on the B18C but still does have some effect. I have had a friend borrow an old one off us, installed onto an ITR and he never wanted to take it out! So give it a good guess

I heard that you lose top end power using the B18 series engines. I'm not 100% sure but you should do a search. It could be helpful sometimes!

I definately felt more pull down below and in the mids with it, and only a slight loss up top, not much though, the mid was definately worth it.

How much does the Ventulli plate go for by the way? Would it increase horses with more mods?

Thanks for the help. I figured that with an extra gain in the mid, some high end would be lost. Well, thanks.

I have a used one here at the house. It came off of a JDM B16A engine. It's not mine, but my friend who owns it wants to sell it. They sell for about $260 in Japan, and about $350 here in the states. It is said that you get about 7hp at the wheels in the mid range on a B18C, so it will probably give you more than that on a B16A.
