I've never seen it done on an F22, but that doesn't mean it's not impossible.

Basically, with the ITB setup, instead of having just a single TB, you now have quite a few of them, depending on the number of cylinders. Right after installation, you will notice that your idle is changed for the better. Throttle response is now better because the volume of air entering the intake manifold is decreased. Some gains in low to mid-end power will also be noticed.

it's the set up for high rev'ing N/A motor set up.
but you gonna have to tune and modify the fuel map for the motor.

it's getting cheaper and cheaper now, there's kit for it which run about 3000buck
