What is an ITB?

 

[Whiteley]

ITB = Individual throttle bodies, the 4 trumpets you see.

 

[mikey123]

cheers bud

 

[Baz-ESD]

Demo car - Pre loom update

Is that safe?? No slam panel!

 

[sideways danny]

yes perfectly. slam pannel is a flimsy piece of steel. There's a solid cross member behind the bumper

 

[Ali]

Looks much neater there^^ Is the Omex not a bit exposed?? I remember somebody else having there's there...And it got wet.

All well and good as long as you don't mind running bonnet pins I guess

I always thought the Ktec one looked neat.

[sideways danny]

can run with shorter trumpets if really needed, but you lose significant torque

 

[d4ve86]

probably the same kit as GDi but ktec's looks really neat,

What length are those? 90mm?

 

[fil_b]

danny, is the battery in the boot??

 

[Ali]

call the care police TBH

Was being serious! Is there not a box or something for it? Expensive bit of kit if you get it soaked!

Was that the one at FCS!? Was blown away with the attention to detail!

Realistically is it easy enough to fit yourself?

fine if it's not jetwashed. Standard ECU position afterall

I had a good look at this when i was a ktec last, it looks and sounds great! :approve:

 

[sideways danny]

What length are those? 90mm?

maximum of 60mm to keep the slam panel

danny, is the battery in the boot??

yes, has been for a long time

 

[172Ben]

Much difference between 60mm and 90mm in terms of performance?

 

[sideways danny]

torque is notably less with shorter trumpets. We are runnign 120mm on the demo car. Had to mod the rad position for that though

 

[172Ben]

Can you have them too long?

I though shorter were better for bhp but less torque and longer were vice versa, or is that just rubbish.

 

[sideways danny]

only difference we've seen is torque

 

[172Ben]

Interesting Thanks

 

[Bloooor]

I would still like to know more about ITBs like the trumpet size is still a grey area for me and for some others i'm sure... KTECs does look neat but i'm after good performance for the money you pay for ITBs so im stuck between the 2...

 

[RBR4]

What size were these Danny?

Brakes are awesome btw ,thanks.

 

[Andy GDI]

120mm...

40mm Kills torque
60mm std kit (fits behind slam panel)
90mm increased torque (requires removal of slam panel "its not structural" and needs bonnet pins)

 

[dunlop]

can you run 90mm with a/c?

 

[SBV116]

90mm trumpets.

 

[dunlop]

any more pics?

you got yuours back yet?

 

[RBR4]

Its these rear facing,fire breathing trumpets i like

 

[Barron]

90mm trumpets.

whats the big braided pipe for?

 

[YorkshireDaz]

One from FCS

 

[nth]

how quick are these...? figures?

So i met up with Adey today for a bit of a blast in his ph1. His new ITBs from K-Tec/Omex are AWESOME! The noise is truly amazing.....I LIKE!

Anyways on our way to the car park for some pics and the boys in blue show up! A slapped wrist later and here are the pics

Thought i'd try and be clever -

[Beas]

The white one with the slam panel cut out looks the best imo. Looks really neat! really wish i could be brave enough to spend the money!! Lol. They do make the best sound!!

 

[Christopher]

The K-Tec kit is amazing-looking

Would you not lose torque with those shorter trumpets though? :S

EDIT: Just saw the above posts. Yes, you do!
