My Crazy Thought
I've been wondering about this for awhile and finally need to ask. Do you think it would be possible to use the TODA Racing Injection Kit on a turbo setup using custom IC piping back to the individual throttle bodies? Has anyone ever seen this done/tried before? I'm not thinking of trying it at all (no money, Teg's my only car) but I just wanted to get your thoughts on it.

As far as using itb's, it has been done. It was rumored that gary gardella used itb's with a sheet metal plenum on his ecko drag car at one point. I dont know if they still run them or not.
For street driving, this probably wouldnt be a great set-up. The midrange and top end gain would be significant though on a turbo car i would imagine. In reality, a well designed intake manifold with internal velocity stacks would come close to the power producing capabilities of an itb set-up. I think more than anything, they employed the itb's to give that extra 20-30whp gain needed in racing. Remember keep it simple, simplicity i have found to be the best quality in building a fast street car.
