the homemadeturbo stuff is nice but it's nothing new.

there's a bunch of guys on here that have done the DIY with motorcyle ITB's. And he did it the hard way. CBR ITB's are much easier to use. I just think it's funny how people are jumping all over this. I remember seeing this done well over a year ago. There was a member on here making them and selling them on ebay and for a good price too.

props to homemadeturbo though for posting what he did and for the pics!

here's the H-T post he had. It's on page 2 now. Funny you never saw it in here. It was on page 1 for several days.

As steve stated homemade ITBs have been around for a while. None the less the setup that you are talking about is defenitely inovative and also well executed.
Here is a thread which has a few pics of the home made ITBs that I made almost two years ago!!https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=523979 Thanks to rolow for posting the pics.

REPOST!!!! j/k

Seriously though people have been using CBR, particularly the 929RR, ITB's for quite sometime.

Cheaper alternative then using the 'yota ones. Obviously cheaper then aftermarket.

i just completed my setup using cbr 954 throttle bodies i picked up for 46 bucks on ebay. i made a couple adapter plates one our cnc machine, epoxied one to the throttle bodies, one was TIG welded to the cut-off manifold base, and cnc'd a couple plates to bolt some billet stainless webber velocity stacks to the TB's. it was a lot of work, but i think it will be more work to tune it perfectly using only a wideband, a g-tech, and ghettodyne. i'm expecting weeks of work! if i can figure out how i'll post pics if anyone is interested. i mainly did this project to see if i could. it all sits atop a mildly built dohc zc (yeah, i know its not a wild motor)

in the link i noticed that he didn't use the stock TPS voltage settings. anyone know why he doesn't? does the voltage need to be different to account for different factors (idling right, more power, etc.)? or could he just not get it down to stock specs for some reason? also, if it were the latter of the two, why wouldn't he be able to do so? i wouldn't feel right setting my car to idle at 11-1200 rpms...

he says this:
"Best I could get the ITB TPS was .6 @ closed"

Does the "best he could get it" apply to idle speed/quality, or how close it is to stock specs?

lol, i hope that made sense... i'll drink a beer for you if you answer my questions

Dude Mr. HomeMadeTurbo just posted this himself in THIS forum like 3 days ago. His first post to this forum actually. I got to see the car run, and for a "trailerpark B16," it ****** rips!

why don't you post in that thread and ask him.

Also, I don't know what you're expecting as far as idle but most people who have ITB's have lot's of compression and big cams. You're not gonna be able to idle at 750rpm. They aren't made for street motors. You'll most likely need to idle at 1000+rpm to get it right. But ask him. He's the one who did it.

a little off topic but are there any sportbike itb setups that might work on an h22 motor? everything i see about the homade itb's are always for b series motors.

the ITB's aren't specific to B series.

Just hack up a stock manifold like the homemadeturbo guys did and attach the ITB's in the same way. Nothing extraordinary about it. Not familar with H series so you'd have to figure out the sensors. But the idea is the same. For H series you might wanna try to find some 50+ mm throttle bodies though.
