Hi there guys and girls.
Just wondering if the hayward itb system will fit under the hood of my K SWAPPED EG6. And it is also possible to run an airbox without alterations to my hood. So before i send myself broke. Maybe someone somewhere knows, or knows someone you runs this System would you please care to share some Info with me.
Kind Regards
Wont be possible to run airbox at all without any modification to the bonnet.
What if i run it without an airbox?
Didn't JDMYard EGK20A have to cut a big hole in the bonnet to clear ITB's?
Yeah but apparently these Hayward ITB's are designed so that its fits without cutting the hood.
I believe you still have to cut some of your bonnet skeletonQuote:

Hhmmm in that case it would probably fit but there's still the possibility that you'll have to cut the reinforcing behind the hood.
but what will i be gaining with ITBS if i dont run it an airbox. Can they be run efficiently without run.
Can always just buy another hood?
Yes haywards will fit under the bonnet. As for running airbox, there not needed.
You'll gain response and midrange, but the point of itbs is a longer, faster intake charge with more control due to individual throttles, but the haywards ( or jenveys ) can be ordered in a few different configs for the k20, some longer then others, tapered or straight throttles to name a few.Quote:

More often then not, people in the scene do not properly set up itbs and take advantage of what they have to offer, rather, they look the part.
I dont know what your looking to use the car for, but im guessing your just trying to get the most you can under that bonnet without cutting it, i would be taking the time to build an airbox and intake to suit.
Thanks for the info guys, Much appreciated. So pretty much for it run at optimal level it needs an airbox. And if im not willing to cut my bonnet then pretty much forget about it.
