hahah good idea..

i had turbo already, just thinking what can i do with TB

great rply guys thx

can you have ITB'S and a FMIC?

^^ of course, its the same setup as without the itbs, except the throttle bodies are now in the runners of the intake manifold, instead of a single one at the enterance.

Id rather spend the money elsewhere as aarong mentioned for better gains, although it would be great for a car like the mines gtr which is built for responce with a massive budget.

also gtir does not have ITB, they have quad throttle bodies.

Quad throttle bodies = 4 throttle bodies.
On a 4 cylinder car like the GTIR, that means it has individual throttle bodies or ITBs.

If it was an 8-cylinder car having 4 throttle bodies, then it will be called quad throttle bodies and not ITBs.

The Bugatti Veyron does this. It has 1 turbo for each of the 4 banks of cylinders (and an intercooler for each).

So someone should do this to a 4 cyl honda and get 1000hp without the thirst of 16 cylinders.. Could definitely be possible as the old F1 cars put out sh*t loads of power from 1.5L with 1 turbo. Only prob would be traction..

Most of the big hp GTR's ditch the ITB;s. IMO i would just go a big plenum with trumpets and run 2psi more and get better hp/$ lol. ITB with boost are a waste of money.

Yes correct, most of the big hp gtrs ditch the itbs, in alot of cases you can get better flow with the big single throttle body. In cases where responce is deemed more important than sky high power figures ie, circuit racing, the itbs are usually kept. Just like in the mines gtr.

I agree it would be a waste of money on a honda, much better spent elsewhere. Re-read what im saying

oh yeah, that makes sense. I've never heard or read of people calling it an 'ITB' setup, cause we usually refer in it's other term.

well then, speaking from experience (i guess), ITB with turbo =

[iamhappy46]

ITB's + boost are great when your mid corner, with partial throttle and the trubo is supplying enough air to eliminate vacuum in the intercooler piping. Open the ITB's fully and there is no plenum to fill with air before pressurising the cylinder, only a short runner between then throttle plates and the intake valves.

With a single TB, pressurising the inlet plenum takes a while and there is no instant 'boost' of the cylinder until the manifold is filled with air.

This is where the throttle response comes in for the circuit tuned ITB GTR's and the rally bred GTiR.

what ever happened to your full sick SSS
you should have broken all your bones by this stage as an excuse not to run your car down the 1/4
