TWM induction makes a good set comes with injectors and fuel rail. Your biggest draw back is going to be fuel management. Hope you have a AEM ECU and know how to use it! V-tec controlers are a good start, but won't cut it here.

Bad part is that it will cost you as much as $2000 to get them, tune them and enjoy them.

But, many people are running them on the street, no doubt there, but they have spent major money on tuning and systems like Motec, AEM EMS or Hondata fully loaded.

These are the LAST thing you should ponder putting on your motor. Seriously.

when your motor is tuned with the proper engine management, fuel economy is not horrible with itbs.
