Default ITB's Pro's/Con's

I just watched a vid over on streetfire (yes Im addicted to it) where a D series had ITB's. IS it worth it (sometimes up to $2000) for the benefits? I have the D16Y8 in my Civic.

Unless the engine is fairy well built already, no. You can do much better with the money.

No. Forced induction>N/A. ITB's are for ballers and people who dont understand forced induction.
