What's needed for ITB's?

[Cupman29]

Looking at fitting itb's over the winter and trying to keep an eye on what second hand parts that are needed.

So far I know I'll need:

1) ITB's themselves (jenvey)
2) cable throttle pedal and cable
3) aftermarket ecu (omex, ec1, weber, etc)
4) sensors? (not sure exactly which ones yet but guess it'll be different depending which ecu is opted for)
5) gaskets

Is there anything else and can anyone confirm exactly which sensors are needed and which are best to go for?

Thanks for any help.

You have covered the basics mate, you will also need a wiring loom for the ECU, a ph1 throttle pedal, a throttle cable, inlet manifold,coil pack bracket and an air filter.

Would be good to get a catch tank also.

Cheers Russ,

Got an oil catch can just now so which ecu is easiest to fit for the wiring loom?

Also, which sensors is it you need? Is it just coolant temp and throttle position sensors that are needed or is there more?

Youll need a cable throttle body too.. You planning to do it yourself?

If it was me going aftermarket, id be very tempted to stump for TDF's kit mate, might be a little more expensive than going 2nd hand, but the kit is such a well proven product it would be very hard not to get it - and if im honest it wouldnt work out being that much more expensive than sorcing the items yourself

Yup, doing it myself apart from the wiring and mapping.
