the type s is a japan-only model. it has a 220hp version of the h22. and some cosmetic differences. the main difference in the SH is the ATTS (transfers torque between the front wheels when turning, which makes it handle better than just about every FWD car and even many RWD cars), different wheels, color-matched side skirts, standard spoiler and standard 5 speed manual.

so is there an need in me ordering a type S throttlebody?

NO. THe Throttle bodiy alone will not do that much on a USDM car. The H22 for the Japanese market also has a number of other things that are differently configured.
IF you are using the car as a general daily driver you will not feel the difference in the Base versus SH suspension. The ATTS comes into play when cornering.
