Default Building an LS with ITBs

I got a 91 Si with a rebuilt B18a. The internals are all stock as this was a budget build. My question is has anybody done the ITB's on a stock LS with obd-0 and if so, what needs to be done? I have found 2001 GSX-R 600 throttle bodies and want to know what steps I have to take with installing them. o I newed to ochange the ecu (91 integra ecu) or do I have to convert to OBD1? Thank you.

you might want to go to obd1 for tuning. ITB's are a pain to tune. I dont think you will get any benefit out of a stock motor you would need higher compression and some cams to make power with those ITBs.

I agree ITBS really arn't the best for most cars.

you can do ITBs off turbo edit IIRC but i'm not sure it's been ages since I was obd0.

I know in the all motor forum there are a few write ups how to use bike TBs for a Honda.

If you want to stay budjet LS build some mild cams good header rod bolts and an b16 tranny. I would say the intake manifold is not the first place I'd look for adding power on a LS motor.
