All we've heard from you since the moment you had those ITB's fitted is that they're the best things known to mankind and that all a supercharger did was make a whhheeeeeee noise. Now look at you, seriously considering getting an SC conversion. :D :D :D


don't drag me either to cross the dark side :lol: i just find the itb's way is costly ;)
i must resist evil and spend the cigarette money on the itb's. so far so good :(

You can have both... Rotrex + ITBs :groupjump:


i know i have been looking on that option ;)

Like my 1600 20v Toyota, was 267bhp at 7800 when on the rollers before I took it apart.

That's just an immutable fact of life. More power costs more money, especially when chasing it with a normally aspirated engine. I argued with myself for ages about whether to pursue NA power or go SC. Stupidly, after spending a stupid amount on NA tuning, I then decided to spend a stupid amount on SC tuning. Wish I'd just gone SC from the very start.

i have made my decision this year enjoy the car :rolleyes: enjoy the tune ;)
so the mod will be fitting new steel rods (for strength), balancer delete, lightened flywheel .....and do a overall check on this 61000 mile engine B)

I hope those ITB's sound good in the car as you certainly cant hear them properly outside of it :P plus it needs a little less fuel injected too as its a bit 'fluffy' sounding :lol:

Agreed though - you should get a quiet exhaust so you can truely hear the induction roar of the ITBs thumbsup
