spoon facricates like, the best tuned up motorblocks on the market for Honda, if you buy a spoon-engine you can count on 5000$, then you still need to buy all the **** that's not inside the engine like turbo, header, manifold,... but then you have one ****in' fast car with ALLOT of hp.

Spoon is a tuner shop that does endurance races, most of its merchandises are contracted out to other major manufacturers. i.e. Momo steering wheels, Vision Technica CF mirrors, Desmond Regamaster wheels, Showa suspension components.
These are some of the other items are made to their spec, then they sell these items to the public. So prices is higher, but the quality is there. Other things like engine related things, they purchase it from Honda Japan then work on them, balance, P&P, blue print, assembly... etc. Like what Leitner Performance does. So you are getting a package that is cater to a specific need.
Their engine sees redline probably more than what your average Honda engine will in its natural machinery life.
Depending on how you tune your car, some parts are useful, and some parts can be avoided.
