On FI ITB setup you would not have each ITB pulling air in from the atomsphere. You would have a pendulum (sp?) around each ITB (picture the ITBs as the runner on your IM).

Plenum... ;p A pendulum is a counter weight in a clock.

You airbox the ITBs (ie: seal them into a closed system). Look for a video of Tony the Tigers car.

You just need a plenum prior to the ITB's, and hook it to the charge piping. There is a thread on this in the welding/fab forum:

Then, you get the awesome throttle response of ITBs and, well, boost.

I have Tony's video hosted on my FTP:

right click save as

FWIW: The addition of ITB's to a turbo setup will not yield significant horsepower numbers, but rather improve throttle response.
