how built does your motor have to be to use ITB's?
can u have a stock block and a fully built head and use them?
would there be a downside to using them with a stock internal block?


thats all for now im just interested in them and was wondering what is required of my motor to use itb's thanks and sorry if i sound stupid

 

There is not really a set setup for ITBs. If you bolt up a set of itb's to stock motor, i am sure you will get some gains. The whole problem revolves around the price, and is it worth getting minimal gains for the amount of money spent. ITb's truely shine when running a motor with some high compression, i wouldnt even consider a set unless i was running more then 13:1. Its also a big giant bling factor, for the money there are a couple of mani's on the market that could prolly flow just as much, and still save you money.

Its a legitimate question that you ask, think of it this way ... to make more power you need more airflow through your cylinder head. The things that hamper airflwo is the intake manifold, head intake ports, camshaft(s), exhaust port and exhaust manifold. A better flowing "manifold" i.e. ITBs will result in one piece being better but still need to compliment the other pieces, like a slightly bigger camshaft, a better header or exhaust manifold ... then you see the true potential of your motor.

From a practical point of view, not too many people go ahead and do ITBs as their "first" mod because of the price involved, i.e. you need to modify your engine management to run the ITBs, etc.

no no no i think i was misunderstood

i allready have skunk 2 intake manifold,dc sports jdm 4-1 2.5 header,skunk 2 ti retainers,JUN cam gears,JUN II cams,skunk 2 valve springs,skunk 2 high comp valves,new valve guides,spoon headgasket,spoon 65 mm t/b,spoon thermostat, all of this is waiting to go into my b16 this spring i was just wondering if the itb's would be a good choice if all you have is a built head,and stock block internals.

the itb's wouldnt be my first just another piece to compliment the free flowing head

mill the head 30 thous, take out middle layer from stock headgasket and that should help alot.
