spoon is a tuning company from japan. they are known for making honda motors awesome with tight parts, but for the price you pay, you can get the same performance for cheaper. Spoon motors are known for being quite finicky and are meant to driven on the track only, and rebuilt quite often. generally not for your everyday driver. They have some nice stuff though

i don't know.....but spoon is pretty cool but from what i've heard, a lot of people say other company's are better......like toda cams or whatever......i like the spoon styling though.......the lip and stuff......a lot of carbon fiber.....but they're pretty good performers too.....i have a few vids of spoon race cars......the dc2 was nice.........but the japanese driver spun out.......ouch!!! don't want to mess up that $300+ lip!!

JUN

I used to be into Spoon, but they are REALLY OVERATED, so if you really want all out performance gp with JUN parts. Tey can build you a all-motor B18C1 that can run 12's on street tires, if that isn't impressive, i don't know what the hell is. Thats why I say Spoon.

JUN USA (562) 424-7828

LOL! funny story: I was at king motorsports a couple months ago when my friend was getting his supercharger installed, scott answered the phone and it was jun on the other end asking him if he wanted to form a partnership......He laughed out loud and asked him who his competition would be if he did, It was just weird that it happened while we were there
