Default quad throttle bodies on B16A1

Hello

i'm currently getting prices for quad throttle bodies for my UK spec 91 CRX VT B16A1 At the moment i've got a bored out throttle body & SKUNK2 inlet manifold fitted. I've tried finding out how effective quads are for the B16A1 in the UK but there doesn't seem to be many people that have used them on the Honda engines .

What kind of gains should i roughly expect over a bored out TB & SKUNK2 i/manifold? are they going to be worth the extra money? also, should i just go for a large filter or an airbox?

Any advice would be greatfull, thanks

Craig

Toda makes a great ITB kit for the B16A. its about $2,600. i dont know much about ITB's, but from what i hear theyre pretty effective.

Several people claim that they are not very streetable cause of they dont make too much power until above 5k. Also, they say that a standalone is required.

you have to have crucial tuning and a good tuning system. i will be running them on the street soon. but they do make good power if used right TWM makes a good one also..cheaper too.

It seems like you would lose so much low end power it would make a really crappy street car.
