reviews that got my attention

“FujiRacing IRTB Miata launches harder than my 280 rwhp supercharged Miata did. Fastest car I have ever driven through a slalom”.

“Flat torque curve just like my Honda S2000. Throttle response is there immediately, unlike Bob’s car having to wait for the power to come on(Bob Palmblads supercharged Miata).This Miata is faster than any roots supercharger that I have driven”.

“Fastest normally aspirated Miata I have ever driven. I have never seen a tach move so quick from 3000 RPM to redline.Perfect for autocrossing”

Ugh. I think that’s a common scenario. Picked up everything (or near everything you need) for a ‘custom’ ITB setup for my crx, started researching, got overwhelmed/depressed, gave up, parts collect dust/get sold. I have a cut manifold & cbr1000rr throttle bodies, injectors, sensors, etc., sitting in the garage, for like 2+ yrs now.

Or it might just be me…

You can sometimes find complete ITB setups with all you need to install it on [CR.net](http://CR.net) ([ClubRoadster.net](http://ClubRoadster.net)). Price is usually $1200-$1700.

That’s a lot of cheese, yes, but it saves a lot of time piecing it together (and perhaps giving up on the project altogether as a result).

Another route would be to put the 2001 head (with VVT) on your car (it’s a 1.8 right? If not, swap one in!) and do the usual bolt on mods with tuning. It seems that you can get very close to what an ITB setup will have power wise with the same supporting mods.

The difference will of course be in the sound and throttle response.

Haha yeah dude, Ill let you know soon as its outta hibernation! Im all done with the military so Ill actually be out and about this year. Got a few things I need to do and some more tuning but its plenty driveable now. MX-5, mine are actually for a 1.8 BP, but after some cutting/welding/porting, they came out pretty good for the FE3. It was almost a perfect port match to begin with. Syncing them had been a PITA though, but since I got a Carbtune, its waaay easier!

Thanks MX-5! Im using SDS, not the most ITB friendly system but I guess I like doing things the not-so-easy way (Hell, who builds an NA Probe anyhow? haha) Im tuning it by alpha-n (tps based) now but one things I wanna do this spring is revert back to MAP based. This usually goes against conventional ITB wisdom but I think it will be more streetable and easier to get it where I want. A lot of the top end standalone’s have a tps/map blend, which would be ideal, but I think I can work around the speedbumps. For example, SDS has a decent accel enrichment, so that should cover one of the usual issues of going MAP with ITB’s. If this was strictly a track car, Id leave it alpha-n.
