LS/VTEC ITB's
 

i have the chance to get brand new ITB's for my soon to be LSV or just stick with the bored out throttle body i already got...don't know to much about ITB's so im not even sure the power i can make out of them....schmoo...i'd imagine u can help in this? lol

I'd stick with your bored throttle body. The ITB's need some kind of tunable EMS system...and aren't really worth it unless you have a fully built NA motor.

Yeah ITB's are hard core, but only good on a fully built NA car... Plus if i were to do ITB's i would do them on a K, seems like better air flow.. Regardless they are like 1500$...

I agree. The cost of the ITB's and the cost of the EMS needed to control them is no even worth the gain you will see on your setup. If you had a beefier setup, the gains would be more worth that cost.

you guys are lookign at it all wrong. r u an able mechanic? you can use gsxr ITBs from several different bikes. and, i think uberdata and also CROME support ITBs. just do some research and have at it.
and u can also turbo a car with ITBs, u just have to know how to weld so u can build a plenum for it

Uberdata doesn't have support for ITB's, but Crome does.

http://www.homemadeturbo.com/tech_projects/itb/ is a good source.

I've also seen ITB's from the 954RR used, and other bikes. Does that mean it's worth it? No...but we're looking at it all wrong. :rolleyes: I'd rather use something specifically designed for my motor, rather than hack together some ITB's from a sport bike.

its people like you that allow companies to produce things that are way over priced. such as full race manifolds and "JDM" parts. ITBs from a bike work absolutely fine at a fraction of the price.

It's still not worth it on a basically stock motor.

u are right about that. if he did decide to pay for a high qualityITB setup ,he should really have head work done and other things to draw all the power out of them. in my opinion, i wouls rather just build a nice turbo kit. but thats just me. sorry to be an ass b4, havin a rough day
