Default ITB's on 08 Si?

Can it be done and how? I was told there is nothing to tune the cars with. How much does drive by wire affect it?

anything can be done with money.

youd have to back to a tc instead of dbw, get a type s ecu to run kpro somehow, and then to top it off, try and retrofit k20a2 or k20a ITB's to your k20z3. oh yea, have fun with tuning and holding the tune.

i dont think he was looking for a sarcastic answer, its a pretty simple question.

short answer: yes, it can be done.

long answer: there will be complications due to the dbw system. but..... i recall a few vendors at nopi nationals that were working on the itb's for 06+ civic si.

ahh bastard beat me to it, its not worth the amount of money used for the power gains. until k-pro comes out for our car we're basically s.o.l if we stil want to legally pass emessions.

firsdt you would have to find a company that actually makes a set fr the si. then you have to get it tuned. so till then its not possible.
