ITB's on a V6

[gnx1987]

You need an airfilter/s to be street legal don't you?

Well with 2.5 litres and a light car I think low end will still be alright?
As it is now with only 2 litres, and my intake runners are stuck on long (ie, top end power) it still pulls comfortably from just over idle even on up hills and high gears
And the engine has something wrong with it (possibly spun bearing) as it's only made 112kw at the front wheels
As opposed to a friends lancer with same engine conversion did 132kw atw (but had extractors and cat which mine doesn't)

I could look at it for you, But I can't promise anything.
I'd need to measure under the hood to see if it's worth trying.
Btw, we're in Wetherill Park, approx 15~20mins from Yenora.

How much would it roughly cost?
There is an off the shelf ITB setup I found already but depends on what you want to charge.

I'll prob get you to tune it when it's done though
What ECU do you recommend?
That'll be the last thing I buy though, closer to the end of the year

Short is meant for top end power.....

If there is an off the shelf kit from a reputable manufactrer, use it.
It'd be cheaper than making one.

Aarong, sorry I did mean short (they are in the "open" state) which is only supposed to happen after 4500rpm but mine are just stuck on open all the time


Toda, I'd still be interested in what sort of price you would be charging?
The brand is relatively reputable but I am unsure how much tuning and testing was done.
Rather I have the feeling it's more theoretical and was manufactured under some sort of formula

I can't give you a firm quote without seeing & measuring the available space.
Looking at your engine bay pic, it's not going to be exactly a simple task.
Are you able to bring the car over?

Hit dynodave with a PM.. he might be able to help you out... his pretty experience with ITB

[spetz]

Toda,
No I can't bring it
It isn't registered and after sitting for a few months it doesn't start anymore

Would it help if I took more detailed pics of the engine bay?

And roughly, what would the turn around time be for a job like that?
PS. If you give a rough estimate of price, even with say +/-$1000 it would be good

[TODA AU]

Sorry, it's too hard to give a firm quote without seeing it.

[spetz]

oh ok
Well, to let you know the off the shelf item is $2500
I assume maybe + GST + shipping + filter elements
How does that sound?

And, what should I ask them when I talk to the seller? ie, what must it have etc?
Thanks
