How much power can you gain off itb's on a pretty much stock engine (IE no internals)?

id build the motor a little more if you want an im. youre not going to gain anything as is, especially with stock injectors and no fuel pressure regulator. if you have more air, you need more fuel...but like i said, your car is pretty much stock, so id say dont waste your money.

You're going to need A LOT more than JUST an intake manifold to notice/feel any difference.

If the original poster wants to, go to http://www.maxbore.com, i saw a banner here on ht, they will bore out your throttle body and port match your intake manifold...for pretty cheap to, so I suggest looking into that
