Itb's

[beeza]

might want to do a little head work and a full aftermarket ecu to tune, then ul feel the real power in the ITB's

Gotcha!

[beeza]

You would probably blow your motor. The ITB's allow for more air to rush in at once. With stock fuel maps/ignition timing, you'll run extremely lean and bye-bye motor.

I see,ah ha.Thanks mate.

[dongsoo]

if u add ITBs onto a stock engine. how do u expect it to run at all ? (map/afm will not work)

[vinnY]

vacuum box

it'll probably run, just barely and probably terribly too

[beeza]

Like DYNALL'S?,then it will run?

Word!

[vinnY]

no he's just got an airbox.. vacuum box is just something to run all your vac lines to
i.e. 1 from each tb, to brake booster, map sensor, iac, etc

[riruiz_88]

what if you only work the head, and leave the bottom end standard? would that yeild a good power increase?

[vinnY]

the way i see it, itb's aren't about making power
they're about response and shifting the power band to however you like it
mid range ftw

[Benson]

Can I simply install a set of itb's on my automatic d16y4 without tuning?

Just reset the ECU and go?

Brett.

It will run on the stock ECU, but its best to get it tune

[xntrik]

I forgot to mention when it gets tuned, I've been told that you have to go to a tuner that knows ITB's apparently if you dont tune it properly, the butterflies of each body doesnt open properly.

:x thats as far as I know. Can anyone confirm this?

[geeang]

All depends on the engine setup, ITB setup, etc.

My JDM B18C with A-sport ITB's ran fine, and idled perfectly on a stock DC2VTIR ECU. You could feel power loss higher up on the stock ECU though.

Tuning was fiddly, took about 5-6 hours but the end result was fantastic.
Actually idled better on the stock ECU than the tuned Hondata

[xntrik]

Wow really better on stock ECU than the Hondata? D:
