i would say you need some way to datalog with a/f meter so you can tune it,and probably run one of those vacum logs to get consistent reading for the map..

but money for power, this is not the way to go, better off starting with cams,springs,ect... imho

Is it only power that you're looking to achieve from the ITB's? ITB's are great for throttle response but if you're just looking to bolt them on and see 40hp gains it's not going to happen.

A cheap turbo build or some internal engine work are much cheaper for a daily driver if it's only power you're after.

ITB's should be the last part added to a quality NA build.

Too complicated though, it just adds issues.....why do that when boost is boost?
