i've been reading up these alot and was wondering why it hasn't been tried on srt's, or has it.

Probly wont fit. its a tight squeeze. I've seen F/I ITB's before. I dont even think its worth it. i really dont know.
Lets wait and find out what other ppl have to say.

I know a lot of NA honda's run these, there a bitch to tune. I saw one guy on honda-tech running 11:1 ITB's and turbo.

It's impractical for a turbo application. The fastest turbo 4 cylinder vehicles in the world run 1 large TB. If you really want to learn more about what your asking, look up hilborninjection.com

The Nissan GTI-R Pulsar actually came stock with ITB's,google that shit!

IMO it would be a plumbing nightmare.

actually they are really complicated to tune correctly.. a friend of mine Dennis from hybrid dynamics did several articles about it in modified mag.

none of the RB series motors come with individual throttle bodies.

especially a forced induction motor, like said before it just complicates things.

i dont see a benefit to running a single intercooler pipe to each cylinder.

if there was a benefit to it everbody would be doing it, and it would have been done on the pro forced induction nhra 4 cylinder style cars several years ago

You dont have to do it like that, you can build a box plenum for the ITB's

Like others have said unless you have time, can fab and have parts laying around, then its a waste of time, especially for someone that has an average setup.

It has been done, but unless your looking for the last HP available its a huge waste of time IMO.

i think jason, one of DCRs metal fabricators is going to try this on his setup....dont quote me on that and dont tell mark reilly!! they are a PITA to tune

like i said before, if it was going to show any decent gain in power then you would see alot more of these

mightyxwhitey53 · 11-16-2008, 12:29 PM

^^yup...about the only advantage i can see is quicker throttle response of the 4 itb's...

TurboMoparGod · 11-16-2008, 12:33 PM

I almost think 4 TB's on a turbo car would be a restriction due to 4 tb plates and 4 tb shafts in front of each runner vs. 1 tb plate and 1 tb shaft at the end of an intake manifold. Think about it.
