really? I thought FI through ITB's was a nightmare due to problems getting a stable map reading....

TB's look awesome Iain, what ECU will you be using?

yeah the lad i bought these from is going turbo so wanted a plenum and single TB.

Much cheaper and no disadvantage.

Apparently one of the few cars with multiple TBi's turbo'd is a pulsar/sunny Gti-r

There are ways around it, but yes a single throttle body on the end of a plenum is far easier.

How that was meant to sound was that it will be easier to blow through those than twin webbers...(sealing them and getting a boost signal to the float chambers)

You can always run 4 vac lines off each throttle body into a small balance box and one line from there to the ECU anyway...in theory...

It looks like bulkhead clearance is the last if Iain's worries
