Remember throttle cable needs mounting somehow and you need to get some vacuum ports tapped into the inlet.Honestly can't see why more people don't do it. Tbh though there's not a lot more power to be had and they can be tricky to get running right on a diy setup Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I really don't know why people want to gush over ITB when the power is minimal and the sound is nothing compared to spool. Each to their own, but for the money I'd stick with a low PSI CT9 on an N/A over ITB. Although given Sparky's history of posts I expect he is more testing the water rather than venturing down this route. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sparkythestarlet Posted March 30, 2017 Author Share Posted March 30, 2017 Yeah just testing the water as unsure on what route to take got the love for the starlet back so wanna do some stuff i am more incline to turbo it on low boost as is apparently quite easy to do Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Stu Posted April 1, 2017 Share Posted April 1, 2017 To get the most out of them you really need to run an aftermarket ecu and tune in alphaN (TPS mode). By playing with different intake lengths ie distance from back of valve to butterfly to end of trumpet you can shift the power band around abit. Much trickier science thats for sure. Helmholtz intake resonance is a good topic to read up on Quote Link to post Share on other sites
