ITBs generally run about 600-1300 depending on if you fabricate your own or buy them made with carbon fiber stacks. I always thought the purpose of having ITB's was for throttle response and more of a drag racing application so that each cylinder can have as much fuel as possible by forcing more air into it. The only type of turbo setup I've seen run with ITBs was a custom made manifold that fit over the ITB's which thus makes it an intake manifold. A large plenum manifold would benefit your turbo application best. Also, a stock motor with ITBs would most likely be LOSING power due to too much airflow. It all depends on your plans and goals for your car/motor. drag race? auto-x? Daily driver with a nice little kick ?

It is still an Individual Throttle Body setup because each cylindar has its own throttle body.

yes but did you not just turn it into a modified version of an intake manifold? also did you provide any substance to this person's thread with your comment ? spell check &gt; you

Sorry sir I was not trying to offend you, and sorry I was posting quickly and did no spell check, glad you pointed out my spelling errors in an attempt to discredit the information that I posted.

I was merely pointing out a fact so that anyone looking to learn about ITB's understands the concept. I'll also pause for a second and let you know that I am not trying to argue with you at all. I am just discussing the matter since that is what we are all here to do. If you really want to look at it even the ITB's that are open to ambient non pressurized air are still a modified intake manifold. And the concept that makes them Individual Throttle bodies is still true as long as there is one throttle body per Cylinder. Sorry if you took offense to my post, that was not my intent.

i hate that we have to get apologetic on here, and up another level, some people on here are soo stinky at times....not to call out 98typesh, because he is the least of our stink problem....

i think it all traces back to the fact that we all think we know everything

either way, on turbo you would benefit very minimally from the itb setup, unless i really am missing something with the whole turbo theory thing...
