foz01: do you have a picture of the intake chamber that you fitted over the ITBs? In looking at the ITB setups I've seen on the S2000, there doesn't seem to be any room to fit a box. The ITB horns come very close to the hood. Thanks.

man it seems like everyone wants to go the ITB route...

Personally if i decided to go this way, i would buy the Toda ITB's. I havn't seen any numbers, but Toda is a good company. In the end ITB's just come down to if they are properly tuned.

Yeah but maybe 1 or 2 will actually get them in 4-6 months then you have to tune them. So look at $4000+. Not a lot of people will invest that much for the gains. I have heard from a couple people that bought them and the gain was not worth what they paid to get that gain.

I would get them just because IMO they are not that expensive. But the wife wont want them since this is going to be her car.

I figured I would just tell you guys it's looking like I am going to have to go with TWM's 52mm... Either used or new, I am still working that out

Thanks for all the help and advice, it's greatly appreciated!

With the box feeding air to the ITBs from a single source, could you tack on an FI system as well....you know money not being an issue?

It would be hard for a the box to contain that kind of pressure. I just dont think you could ever get it to seal correctly.

Weld it together and to the ITBs, I'm not sure that keeping the box solid would be the huge stumbling block?
