Neither worth with the kdf bio torpedo.
So I was wondering if it was the same as that.
Then I have to ask: how does torpedo spread work with the voth torpedo ? Like faw?
Should I start posting again after all this time?

Probably just like how it works with the Wide Angle Quantum Torpedo. The only real difference besides the fact that the Voth torp is a hybrid Transphasic Chroniton is that it has the wide angle. So I don't see why it shouldn't work like a normal torpedo.
As an owner of all three torpedoes mentioned above, I can confidently say that the Voth wide-angle is modified by BOff and DOff abilities. Functionally, it is closest to the Quantum wide-angle.
Forget the possibility of PvP, for so much has become pay-to-win, never to be balanced. Forget the promise of exploration and research, for in the grim dark future of Star Trek Online there is only war. There is no peace amongst the stars, only an eternity of carnage and slaughter, and the laughter of thirsting publishers.
It's a pretty standard torpedo, really; it just has a hybrid proc type and an arc modifier.
The Bio-Neural Warhead, Cluster-launcher, and Harghpeng seem to be the exceptions, not the rule. I mean, you can even use attack abilities with the Reputation and Lobi-store launchers (including the Rapid-Fire Missile Launcher).
Duty officers effect all 'torpedo' weapons, even the specialty ones(the above-mentioned RFML is great for proccing the cooldown reduction of slower launchers).
Well I thank you very much for the information guys.
I was using the torp and trying to get it to torp spread and it didn't "seem" to be working. When I say "seem" I mean I was minimally observing it and it didn't seem to be working.

Torp spread should work fine with the Voth wide-angle. If you've got two or more torpedo launchers mounted, though, it may be challenging to get torpedo spread to apply to the Voth torp, because it has a relatively long cooldown, and a faster-firing torpedo will "use" the spread ability first.
If the ability is working fine, you may not have observed it because the Voth torpedoes aren't exactly the brightest torpedoes in the game (c.f. Quantum torps), particularly if they were targeting something off-screen. Also, sometimes the game has a nasty tendency of not rendering certain special effects, including torpedoes when there are "too many" effects on screen - I've witnessed this before where my quantum torp spread has vanished, but the detonation effects are visible as well as the corresponding damage from the hit.

Ya...it's a transphasics wide angle as far as I know
